Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Lecithin and Allied Substances: The Lipins
Our knowledge Of the lipins has been materially increased within the last few years, but, strange as it may seem, we really know little to-day beyond that which was known and published by Thudichum over twenty years ago. Indeed, recent advances are in many cases but corroborations Of Thudichum's wonderful experimental work. That the brilliant investiga tions of this Observer should have been so long neglected and despised is an anomaly which perhaps was in some measure due to Thudichum's more or less obscure literary style; his pugnacity towards his opponents may also have contributed to produce this result. Whatever the cause, it is only justice to his memory to affirm that he has done more for lipin chemistry than has been done by any other individual.
