✦ Synopsis

Alert readers will already have noticed a change in the editorship of the Journal intimated on the front cover and on the banner page (page i). A signi®cant part of this change involves the loss of Professor John Farndon from the editorial team; this planned change coincided tragically with John's untimely death last month.

The British Journal of Surgery Society has appointed two new members to the Editorial Team: Professor Derek Alderson, a Bristol-based colleague of John Farndon, and Professor Matthias Rothmund of Marburg, Germany, the journal's ®rst Editor from continental Europe. Both Derek and Matthias have served the journal well as enthusiastic referees over many years and we welcome them warmly as colleagues at BJS.
