I am in danger of changing the emphasis of Circles Analysis to suit my convenience. For example, I have (earlier)* seen committees as characteristic of the G~ hemisphere (perhaps towards the A~ pole?); it is misleading to talk about institutions as though they were an M~ hemisphere characteristic. I should perhaps be talking specifically of hierarchies on that side.** The institutional procedures and peer approvals which may distort the male-female balance should be seen as occurring within hierarchical structures,*** whether Companies or Associations: the phrase used in the N[ew] S[cientist]**** – 'at the top of certain professions' – indicates this most strongly.

***{(Committees are, in theory, composed of equals....)}
