THE 32ND CONGRESS IN GLASGOW 10 - 13 AUGUST 2016

From the Webmaster - a personal view

As both a participant in and a lecturer at this Congress, I should like to say how fulfilling I found it. We had excellent academic and social programmes, the post-Congress tours gave us privileged access to the treasures of the locality, and I renewed old contacts and made many new ones. We should all be particularly grateful to the President, the Secretary-General, the Registrar and all the other organisers for their tireless labours and for setting such a high standard.
