Foetal and Neonatal Physiology: A Comparative Study of the Changes at Birth, by Geoffrey S. Dawes, D.M. Chicago: Year Book Medical Publishers, Inc., 1968, 247 pp., $11.00

Seen in this perspective, the recent growth of fetal and neonatal physiology is particularly striking. In much of that growth, Dr. Dawes has been concerned, either as Director of the Nuffield Institute for Medical Research (and thus leader of a major investigating team), or-less directly-as a source of stimulation to a multitude of investigators elsewhere.
