The Vitamins

Abstract

CONFRONTED with a volume such as that recently written by Dr. Ethel Browning, a reader becomes acutely aware of the interest which the discovery of vitamins has aroused throughout the scientific world and the enormous amount of work this has elicited in the brief period of one decade. It is probably true to say that no other fundamental discovery in biological science has led to such concentrated research in so short a time.

The Vitamins.
