Discuss Turbulence
In this new section of our website, we hope to continue and extend the discussion begun in the pages of our magazine. We will post links to select reviews and publish readers’ letters which do something to push forward the debates carried in an issue, through commentary and constructive criticism, as well as offering Turbulence authors the chance to respond.
If you would like to comment on, or respond to, any of the articles published by Turbulence, write to us at editors@turbulence.org.uk, stating clearly that what you are sending us is for publication.
