I ordered one about 1 year ago, but never received it. Possibly because I didn't have a 'proper' organisation (e.g. a university dept) that I could list in the form.


i simply listed my perfectly ordinary residential flat's address in the uk. and, as far as i can tell from the text in the link i gave above, they are giving these away to anyone who wants one as an educational public service, hence the fact that it's the philanthropy department that runs the scheme.

> We believe all people should have access to important scientific information to help their research and education. [...] Roche provides copies as a free service to the public.

they are pretty cool to have, with very high quality two colour printing, and you also get a wee booklet with an index to the two posters to help you find things. there's also a book [0] by the same author with much more detail, and obviously much more portable, but sadly much more expensive ;(

so, i'd try asking for them again, if i was you.

Thanks, I will.
