Chris Gray is a leading Theoretician in the fields of molecular physics and molecular liquids, who has made many outstanding contributions. These include the effects of intermolecular forces on the spectral lines of molecules, and the perturbation theory for the structure of molecular liquids and more recently of polar liquids. The success of his theorectical work in comparisons with experimental results have been striking and have given him his current leadership position in this field. Moreover, his ability to achieve similar successes over a very wide range of properties of molecular liquids has been a notable feature of his career.

LONG
Allan Griffin is a theoretical condensed matter physicist who has made significant contributions to our modern understanding of the dynamics of superfluid systems. He is internationally known for his seminal publications on the pivotal role of Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) on the excitation spectrum in superconductors, superfluid Helium 4, and trapped ultracold Bose atomic gases. His recent fundamental studies of the combined role of both the condensate and non-condensate atoms culminated in his tour-de-force derivation of the Landau two-fluid hydrodynamic equations in trapped Bose gases. The author of two influential books on the topic of BEC in quantum liquids and gases, he is a leader in the emerging field of ultracold atomic gases.

Dr. James Guillet has established an international reputation through his studies and publications in the field of kinetics and mechanism of polymer reactions. His most important contributions have been in five specific areas - the study of organic peroxides as polymerization initiators, the preparation of new waxy materials by thermal degradation of polymers in the presence of modifying reagents, the study of polymers by 'inverse chromatography', the photodegradation of polymers containing keto groups, and the general photophysics and luminescence properties of polymer systems.

Les travaux de M. Guindon portent sur différents aspects de la société québécoise. Son attention s'est portée sur l'évolution socio-historique de la société dans son ensemble, sur les transformations de ses structures institutionnelles, sur la stratification de la société et la composition de ses élites, sur les transformations de ses institutions, de leur rôle et de leur pouvoir dans la société, et enfin sur l'évolution des réalités sociolinguistiques au Canada.
II s'est attardé de façon particulière sur les changements qui sont survenus dans la structure de classe au Québec, sur les forces sociales qui ont amené ces transformations et les conséquences qu'elles ont eues pour la société et ses institutions. Les perspectives qu'il apporte à l'étude de ces questions sont originales.
Ses écrits ont eu et continuent d'avoir une répercussion considérable, répercussion qui se mesure en partie par le nombre de collections qui reproduisent ses textes et par le fait que peu de cours universitaires portant sur la macrosociologie de la société canadienne et québécoise ou sur la stratification sociale n'incluent pas certains de ses textes dans leur liste de lecture.

In Anthropology world-wide Philip Gulliver is identified with network theory. Between 1948 and 1970 his researches in East Africa on various groups produced eight significant books and thirty articles on pastoralism, social structure, law and labour migration. Since his 1971 arrival in Canada to teach at Calgary and York, two of his most important works have appeared, "Neighbours and Networks" and "Disputes and Negotiations",examining how interpersonal ties, structured outside formal groupings, are nevertheless organized and influence action. His prolific publication continues, and he has become a pillar of the discipline in Canada.

Professor Gunn's impressive series of monographs and articles have made an important contribution, not only to his chosen specialty of the history of political thought, but to neighbouring disciplines. His pioneering studies of the emergence of ideas about the public interest, political parties, and political conflict in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries have illuminated our understanding of key notions in our heritage. Recently he has been one of the most active members of the editorial team which produced the first two volumes of the Disraeli correspondence which was published in the Spring of 1982 and received rave reviews by scholars around the world.

Ms. Gupta is an internationally acclaimed group theorist who works in many difficult areas of Combinatorial Group Theory. Her most startling discovery of 2-torsion in the free centre by metabelian groups has generated intense research throughout the world. Amongst her many other accomplishments is her work on the automorphism groups and especially on the existence of wild automorphisms in important cases. In the past number of years she has been an important contributor to virtually every international conference on group theory.

For at least fifteen years N. D. Gupta has had a world wide reputation as a leader in the area of combinatorial group theory - a subject initiated by the famed mathematicians Magnus and Dehn at the early part of this century. His research has, over the years, resulted in breakthroughs in a number of outstanding problems such as the Burnside problem, Fox problem and the Dimension subgroup problem. These works have obtained for Prof. Gupta a large number of lecture engagements throughout the World. He is on the editorial board of various international journals.
