The Way of an Investigator
نویسنده
چکیده
127 Goddard, is a clear and useful summary of many of the facts and theories relating to the respiration of cells and tissues. Section 7 (79 pages) by Wallace 0. Fenn is a discussion of the general problem of contractility. Section 8 (87 pages), by Rudolf Hober, is concerned with passive penetration and active transfer of metabolites in animal and plant tissues. As is admitted in the preface, there has been a certain amount of selection of subjects discussed, with the entire omission of others even though they be of current interest. The lack of reference to the important dynamic school of metabolism, as represented by Schoenheimer, is a case in point. The preparation of the book has evidently been carried on through many difficulties due to the late war. Few of the references cited are later than 1942, although in several instances references to more recent reviews would have been more valuable. The book is, nevertheless, to be recommended without reservation as a source of information on the topics covered and as a source of new problems. The binding and printing are worthy of comment. Although the book has extensive subject and author indices, omission from the latter of most of the references cited in the tables and figures was noted. This little volume has both charm and an apt title: "The Way of an Investigator." This is quite a different story than would have been the case had the title read "The Way of the Investigator." For, though all investigators could well pattern after the author in his work and in his philosophy, many workers come far from doing so. Failure, as well as success, is the usual lot of the one who would search for the unknown fact, perchance more failures than successes, and "hunches" come in many guises as to quality, and some are quite frankly misbranded. Though somewhat autobiographical, the book offers more of Cannon's point of view of life and living, of his way of thinking, and of his method of working.
