3. GUIDANCE IN HONG KONG, SECONDARY SCHOOL RESEARCH PROJECT: by Beryl Robina Wright, being Publication No. 6 of the Hong Kong Council for Educational Research, Hong Kong, 1967 pp. viii, 54, H.K.$3.00.

These three local publications, one a survey into the household expenses of 120 families edited by Dr. Topley and the other two reports produced by staff of the Child Guidance Centre, University of Hong Kong, are recommended to local members. They provide interesting and enlightening material about the life of poor persons in this crowded city. Their importance lies principally in providing background information to instruct and guide specialists and administrators working with practical problems in the Colony and to provide post-graduate students of the humanities and social sciences with basic facts on which they can construct their own research projects.
