Brachiopods Past and Present The Systematics Association Special Volume Series Series Editor Alan Warren Department of Zoology, The Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London, SW7 5BD, UK. The Systematics Association provides a forum for discussing systematic problems and integrating new information from genetics, ecology and other specific fields into taxonomic concepts and activities. It has achieved great success since the Association was founded in 1937 by promoting major meetings covering all areas of biology and palaeontology, supporting systematic research and training courses through the award of grants, production of a membership newsletter and publication of review volumes by its publishers Taylor & Francis. Its membership is open to both ama- teurs and professional scientists in all branches of biology who are entitled to pur- chase its volumes at a discounted price. The first of the Systematics Association’s publication, The New Systematics, edited by its then president Sir Julian Huxley, was a classic work. Over 50 volumes have now been published in the Association’s ‘Special Volume’ series often in rapidly ex- panding areas of science where a modern synthesis is required. Its modus operandi is to encourage leading exponents to organise a symposium with a view to publishing a multi-authored volume in its series based upon the meeting. The Association also publishes volumes that are not linked to meetings in its ‘Volume’ series. Anyone wishing to know more about the Systematics Association and its volume series are invited to contact the series editor.
