About this Item

ix, 106 pp; 27 text figures. Original cloth. Near Fine. First Edition. INSCRIBED BY CECIL K. DRINKER: "Howard!/ I hope you/ like this book/ & that you guess/ at even a fraction/ of the warm feeling/ which goes with/ it./ C.K.D./ Aug. 1945." The book is dedicated by Cecil Drinker to James Howard Means and Eugene Dubois "with whom I have had the good fortune to work". NOTE ABOUT THE RECIPIENT: It is my belief that the "Howard!" in Drinker's inscription is the dedicatee James Howard Means. In his publications, Means used "J. Howard Means" as his name, which says to me that he was known as "Howard" to friends and colleagues. The book has been priced as a dedication copy, so if I am wrong about who "Howard" is and you know to the contrary, let me know. Printed on the title page: "The Nathalie Gray Bernard lectures delivered at the Bowman Gray School of Medicine, Wake Forest College, Winston-Salem, North Carolina, in December, 1944, together with a fifth chapter on artificial respiration.".
