Long-time subscribers of this newsletter are aware that when Christine Amory issues her GIRGEA Newsletter I aways send it out on the ISWI Newsletter for additional global circulation.
She has written a book and I attach an English summary of it. This book serves, in her own words, "as an introduction" to GIRGEA, which is a kind of "international network".
If you are at all familiar with her international activities, I hope you will find time to read the attached summary. She is achieving what ISWI hopes to achieve. (I attach a photo of her, which was taken this year during the "ISWI Steering Committee Meeting".)
Faithfully yours, George Maeda Editor of ISWI Newsletter Hakozaki Campus, Kyushu University, Japan. |
