THE Musée des arts et métiers in Paris produces an enviable full-colour magazine on topics in the history of science and technology, with a strong emphasis on material culture. The text is in French, of course, but there is a separate supplement of abstracts in English covering the main articles. La Revue deserves to be better known, and with this in mind it is being stocked on the Museum bookstall - as far as is known the only outlet for direct sales in the U.K.
