A-F, 1955

Materials in this series resemble those in the CLIPPINGS files in that their subject matter spans Huxley's interests: from professional and popular science to conservation and population control to fine arts, education, religion and philosophy. Arranged chronologically by year and alphabetically by first author within each year, the series includes articles from scientific journals, typescripts and galleys sent to Huxley by friends and colleagues, radio and television scripts, government reports on conservation and population, poems and topical newspaper articles on such subjects as photography and travel. Publications by other members of the Huxley family are included in this series.

Materials whose date is unknown are arranged alphabetically and follow dated publications. Reviews of books not by Huxley have been gathered together and arranged chronologically following all other publications, several reviews are by well-known figures such as Stephen Spender and Arnold Toynbee. Reviews of Huxley's books are filed in the CLIPPINGS - Biographical Materials series.

Folder 1 contains a list of the material in this series, which excludes papers presented at conferences which Huxley attended (see CONFERENCE MATERIALS), documents enclosed with correspondence (see GENERAL CORRESPONDENCE) or organizational reports and publications (see ORGANIZATIONAL MATERIALS). Much material similar to that found here is in Huxley's subject arranged BOX FILES. Short newspaper articles on current events and topics are found in the CLIPPINGS series. Note also that much of Huxley's library is owned by rice. Runs of journals and some pamphlets are part of this separate collection.
