Professor Eastman has made many notable contributions to the social sciences in Canada. He has earned a high professional reputation in Economics, both in Canada and abroad. His publications, both in French and English, have been of a consistently high technical quality. Moreover his writings are always 'thoughtful': he has never published a 'routine' piece. He has actively promoted Canadian participation in international associations, and has himself participated in international economic congresses. He long served the Canadian Political Science Association as Secretary-Treasurer, that is to say, as the administrative mainstay of the Association. He has also served the Graduate Faculty at the University of Toronto as Associate Dean. Everything he has done has been done superbly well.

David Easton, past Sir Edward Peacock Professor of Political Science at Queen's University, Andrew MacLeish Distinguished Service Professor Emeritus at the University of Chicago, and Distinguished Research Professor of Political Science at the University of California, Irvine is among the half dozen or so most influential architects of modern political science. His "The Political System: An Inquiry into the State of Political Science" (1953), "A Framework for Political Analysis" (1965), and "A Systems Analysis of Political Life" (1965) have been translated into the major world languages and his articles are reprinted in several dozens of books. His magistral work in defining, delineating, and systematizing political analysis have been supplemented by a major empirical contribution to the literature on political socialization, notably "Children in the Political System: Origins of Political Legitimacy" (with J. Dennis).
He is past president of the American Political Science Association, fellow, Councillor and Past Vice-President of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, has played leading roles in numerous North American and International social science organizations. Among his contributions as consultant is his participation in the research programme of the Royal Commission on Bilingualism and Biculturalism and his recent chairmanship of the Queen's Task Force drafting a special study for the Healy Commission.

Professor Connie Eaves of the University of British Columbia and the B.C. Cancer Agency is a distinguished biological scientist. She has contributed major insights into how blood cells are formed and how cell growth is regulated. She has applied her fundamental work to the problem of human leukemia, a malignant disease of blood formation. Her discovery that normal cells will outgrow leukemic cells in long-term culture is the basis of a new approach to marrow transplantation. She is a scientific leader; she heads a major research group at UBC. She has had an important influence on Canadian science policy, through her work with the National Cancer Institute of Canada. She is an effective educator, supervising many doctoral students. Her work and her personal contributions have justly earned world-wide respect and recognition.

Born in London, England, and educated in Canada, James G. EAYRS attended the University of Toronto (B.A.), Columbia University (A.M., Ph.D.), and the London School of Economics. In 1952, after a year of teaching at United College, Winnipeg, he joined the Department of Political Economy at Toronto, where he began to develop the then, in Canada, neglected subject of international politics. The five books he has already published in this field have won him wide renown and scholarly eminence. He has lectured in the United States, Africa, Japan and Australia, and since 1959 has been co-editor of "International Journal".

Oliver Edward Edwards is Associate Research Officer, Division of Pure Chemistry, National Research Council. His early work with Professor Hurd led to a critical appraisal of Pictet and Castain's claim to have prepared 1,2-anhydroglucose, to the discovery of some interesting thermal isomerization and dehydration of dihydroxydihydropyran, and to the discovery and interpretation of some unusual reactions of lead tetraacetate with dihydropyran. His most important work has been in the field of alkaloids and indeed his contribution is outstanding. His major structural studies on aconite and delphinium alkaloids, started in 1950, have resulted in the discovery of an array of unusual reactions of the alkaloid lycoctonine which have been interpreted in the light of the complex structure of this base determined by X-ray crystallography. He has also contributed substantially to our knowledge of the structure of the alkaloid atisine, as well as doing first-rate work on unrelated alkaloids.

Dr. J.T. Edward is recommended for Fellowship in the Royal Society of Canada with confidence because of his proven ability, and with enthusiasm because of his attractive personality. His publications are primarily concerned with natural products, but also clearly reveal his great interest in modern theory and technique. This experience, including alkaloids, terpenes, nitrogeneous products and carbohydrates, and contributions to conformational analysis, chromatography, and electrophoresis, shows him to be one of' the most versatile, productive and original chemists in his age group.

Kieran Egan has articulated a new, and new kind of, educational theory. He characterizes education as tied in with cultural history and as the accumulation of four somewhat distinct kinds of understanding - which he calls mythic, romantic, philosophic, and ironic. The radical nature, and potential practical importance, of his work has become increasingly recognized, marked by his receiving the 1991 Grawemeyer Award in Education. (This recently instituted award is consciously designed on the model of the Nobel prizes in areas not recognized by Nobel). His work is inspiring significant changes in curriculum and teaching practices in many countries around the world.

Dr. Peter A. Egelstaff has acquired a widespread reputation for his varied and imaginative research in neutron physics. His work has encompassed both basic science and technology. He was responsible for many early measurements of nuclear cross-sections used in the calculation of reaction rates in nuclear reactions. Of his many contributions to nuclear spectrometry he is best known for the development of cold neutron sources and high-speed phased chopping spectrometers. Sometimes with collaborators, he has made major contributions to the physics of liquids, particularly in studies of the atomic behaviour of liquid metals and alloys, and of molecular liquids, using neutron scattering. He has held administrative posts of importance both in England and Canada.

A graduate of the University of London, from which he holds both the bachelor's and doctor's degrees, Prof. Eichner taught at Bedford College in that University before coming to the Department of German at Queen's in 1950. He has lectured widely in Canadian, German and American universities.
Prof. Eichner has won an international reputation as co-editor of the monumental edition of Friedrich Schlegel's collected works. The introductions he has written for volumes II, IV, V and VI are recognized as masterful essays, and his editorship in general has met with universal acclaim and admiration. To obtain an idea of Mr.Eichner's scholarship and editorial ability one has but to see his introduction and commentary to Schlegel's Literary Notebooks 1797-1801, published outside the collected works in London and Toronto. In spite of his preoccupation with Schlegel and German Romanticism Mr. Eichner has found time to produce valuable books on such modern German writers as Thomas Mann.

LONG
Professor Adi Eisenberg is recognized for his outstanding contributions to polymer science. His fundamental studies on the structure-morphology-property relationships in random ionomers have led to a new unified model which, for the first time, elucidated the relationship between the architecture of the ionomer, including such factors as the nature of the pendant ion, the counter-ion, the ion concentration, and others parameters with the morphology and physical properties of the materials. More recently, Professor Eisenberg has made seminal discoveries in the self-assembly of amphiphilic block copolymers to two and three dimensional micelles in a controlled manner to a range of morphologies including spheres, rods, tubules, hollow spheres and many others. This has led to an explosion of research in the field internationally since potential applications of his discovery range all the way from nano-electronics to drug delivery.

You think radiation pressure repels an object from the source? Dr. Embleton has shown that in acoustics it may be attracted. His broad work in wave motion has also led to less esoteric results such as the quieting of screaming suction rolls in paper mills, design of stator-blades in jet engines that can reduce aircraft noise, an explanation of why reverberation chambers give unreliable values for absorption coefficients of acoustic tile, a ten-fold increase in the precision of standard microphone calibration and how ground can cause acoustic shadows even when the source is optically visible.
