- Description: The machine had been slowly developing for centuries before it became incorporated as the leading element in a new type of civilisation significantly different from any previous society or culture the world had seen. It required a particular set of circumstances to integrate it and these circumstances determine its emergence and the specific form the emergence took. We are looking at a new and complete society in which previously existing elements are rear ranged into a new pattern. Throughout this discussion the relativity of the industrial order to other aspects of the modern society must be seen; it cannot be isolated from its complex back grounds else the effects it has upon simpler societies will not be grasped. It is a complete way of life competing with other complete ways of life and, its power being greater, it substitutes where the competition takes place. It will be observed that it is not identical with a specific kind of economic order so far as it appears to be able to operate in the great capitalist states like America and Britain and yet to function as well in a socialist order. No greater mistake could be made than to confuse industrialisation with a specific economic system although, historically , its association is greater in time than with the newer forms of society of a socialist type. , Digitised by Rhodes University Library on behalf of the Institute of Social and Economic Research (ISER)

The Congrid eels of the Western Indian Ocean and the Red Sea

- Description: The eel family Congridae is now known to be represented in the western Indian Ocean (here regarded to be west of 60 E. from and including the Red Sea, to Cape Point) by 11 genera and 19 species as well as at least five distinct larval forms which have not yet been identified. More than half of these species inhabit the shallow and offshore waters of the tropical western Indian Ocean. The remainder are known only from cool-temperate waters off the Cape, with one deep-water Atlantic species and one Mediterranean species also present in this area. Considerable additions to this fauna can be expected as the deep waters off the east coast are more fully sampled. Congrina wallacei sp. nov., de- scribed here from 260-270 fathoms off southern Mozambique and Durban, has rather large teeth on the jaws, a long snout and about 168 vertebrae. At least one species spawns off the Cape, but the majority probably do so over the western edge of the oceanic basins north and south of Madagascar. The shallow-water species show strong affinities with the tropical and cool-temperate Indo-Pacific. , Rhodes University Libraries (Digitisation)
