Abstract
PROF. K. J. FRANKLIN, Department of Physiology, Medical College of St. Bartholomew‘s Hospital, Charterhouse Square, London, E.C.I, has been entrusted by Lady Barcroft and Prof. Henry Barcroft with the preparation of a biography of the late Sir Joseph Barcroft. He accordingly invites the cooperation of Sir Joseph‘s numerous friends and colleagues ; he does not ask, at this stage, for specific information on particular aspects of Sir Joseph‘s life or work, but for general comments, such as mode of treatment, anecdotes, etc. Full acknowledgment will be made in any consequent publication, and it is assumed by Prof. Franklin that, should he be prevented from writing the biography, the material may be passed on to an alternative author chosen by Lady Barcroft and her son. Communications should be sent to Prof. Franklin at the address above by April 30 next.
