Aerospace Medicine and Biology: A Continuing Bibliography With Indexes

In its subject coverage, Aerospace Medicine and Biology concentrates on the biological, physiological, psychological, and environmental effects to which humans are subjected during and following simulated or actual flight in the Earth's atmosphere or in interplanetary space. References describing similar effects on biological organisms of lower order are also included. Such related topics as sanitary problems, pharmacology, toxicology, safety and survival, life support systems, exobiology, and personnel factors receive appropriate attention. Applied research receives the most emphasis, but references to fundamental studies and theoretical principles related to experimental development also qualify for inclusion. Each entry in the publication consists of a standard bibliographic citation accompanied, in most cases, by an abstract.

Aerospace medicine and biology. an annotated bibliography, 1954 literature, volume iii

While this third volume of the bibliography was in preparation, a number of changes and new developments took place which, it is hoped, will be instrumental in furthering the bibliography's main objective: to provide as rapidly as possible comprehensive coverage of the aerospace-medical and bio-astronautical literature. To begin with, it will be noted that the title of the compilation has been changed from Aviation Medicine to Aerospace Medicine and Biology. This will bring into relief the fact that the general subject scope of the bibliography has been expanded to include new areas of interest in space-medical and space-biological research. Thus, to the subject fields heretofore covered by the bibliography (a full listing of which may be found in the Preface to Volume 2) new ones have been added, such as Biological Rhythms, Biological Orientation, Closed Ecological Systems, Physiological and Psychological Effects of Heat, Cold, Isolation, Restraint, and many others. Another important change was administrative in nature. Sponsorship of the bibliography for the fiscal year 1959/60 was taken over by the U. S. Advanced Research Project Agency (ARPA), the U. S. Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA), and the Defense Research Board of Canada. Under a substantially increased budget, the Library of Congress was enabled to produce two volumes during the fiscal year. The Library also agreed to prepare selected abstracts from the current aerospace and bio-astronautic literature, which are published monthly in Aerospace Medicine, the official organ of the Aerospace Medical Association.*) If the present rate of production can be maintained, it will be possible to bring the bibliography up to date within about three years. In format, style, and arrangement, this volume follows closely the preceding ones. References are arranged alphabetically by author; abstracts are informative; and full bibliographic information is provided, including foreign and translated titles, volume and issue numbers, place of publication (if foreign), inclusive paging, full dates, and library call numbers or other location symbols. While the bulk of the publication is devoted to journal articles, reports, and monographs published during the year 1954, items published in 1952 or 1953 not included in the preceding volumes have been incorporated in this volume. For quick identification, the publication years of these off-year references have been printed next to the first author's name. As before, cumulated corporate and secondary author and subject indexes are included, the latter being revised and enlarged considerably, in keeping with the over-all expansion of subject scope.
