Bon Record
Aberdeen Grammar School has a long and distinguished history; its origins are obscure, but are believed to date from the late medieval period, which supports the claims that it is one of the oldest schools in Britain. Titled after the modern school motto, this book traces Aberdeen Grammar School’s fortunes from its beginnings, many centuries ago, through its recent transformation into a coeducational, comprehensive school, serving much of the central and western districts of Aberdeen City. In doing so, it also assesses the school’s contribution to the North-East of Scotland and pays tribute to more than 800 former pupils, who rank amongst Aberdeen’s past and current most notable citizens.

The Discovery of Insulin
The discovery of insulin at the University of Toronto in 1921-22 was one of the most dramatic events in the history of the treatment of disease. Insulin was a wonder-drug with ability to bring patients back from the very brink of death, and it was no surprise that in 1923 the Nobel Prize for Medicine was awarded to its discoverers, the Canadian research team of Banting, Best, Collip, and Macleod. In this engaging and award-winning account, historian Michael Bliss recounts the fascinating story behind the discovery of insulin – a story as much filled with fiery confrontation and intense competition as medical dedication and scientific genius. Originally published in 1982 and updated in 1996, The Discovery of Insulin has won the City of Toronto Book Award, the Jason Hannah Medal of the Royal Society of Canada, and the William H. Welch Medal of the American Association for the History of Medicine.
