Abstract
THE pre-eminent position of British physiology is inseparably connected with the Journal of Physiology, which was established in 1878 by the late Sir Michael Foster and A. G. Dew-Smith two years after the Physiological Society was started on the initiation of Sir J. Burdon Sanderson. The interesting “History of the Physiological Society” during its first fifty years (1876–1926), written by Sir Edward Sharpey-Schafer, was brought out as a supplement to the Journal last December (vide review, NATURE, Mar. 31, p. 491), and now an author index to volumes 1 to 60 of the Journal (1878–1928) has been issued as a supplement to its June number. These two supplements have appropriately appeared close together, for they cover practically the same—the Augustan—period of British physiology, during almost the whole of which the Journal was under the editorship of the two Cambridge professors, Michael Foster and J. N. Langley.
