The Journal of Value Inquiry is an international, peer-reviewed, philosophical quarterly devoted to the stimulation and communication of research in value studies. The journal explores the nature, origin, experiences and scope of value, as well as problems of value in such fields as culture, aesthetics, religion, social and legal theory or practice, ethics, education, and methodology, technology and the sciences. Founded in 1967 by James Wilbur, The Journal of Value Inquiry is a forum for presentation of the rich diversity of approaches available to value inquiry. It is committed to openness, cosmopolitanism, and the sharing of insights about humanity. In addition to full-length essays, the journal publishes notes, communications to the editors, book reviews, interviews, dialogues, reports, and a news column.

The Mathematical Intelligencer publishes articles about mathematics, about mathematicians, and about the history and culture of mathematics. Written in an engaging, informal style,* our pages inform and entertain a broad audience of mathematicians and the wider intellectual community. We welcome expository articles on all kinds of mathematics, and articles that portray the diversity of mathematical communities and mathematical thought, emergent mathematical communities around the world, new interdisciplinary trends, and relations between mathematics and other areas of culture. Humor is welcome, as are puzzles, poetry, fiction, and art.  *Note: The traditional Definition/Theorem/Proof style of research articles is not appropriate here, nor are articles aimed only at specialists.

The aim of this journal is to cultivate, promote and encourage advancement ofscientific dedication in the field of cell and chromosome research  in eukaryotes- physical, chemical, structural and functional. The scope of the journal has been extended further on eukaryotic genomics covering molecular genetics – both nuclear and organellar, though no doubt the emphasis will always be on Chromosome Dynamics. It is beneficial for students, teachers,research workers and all others interested in the study of cytology, genetics, molecular genomics and evolution in eukaryotic systems.
