Biographic Memoirs Volume 87 contains the biographies of deceased members of the National Academy of Sciences and bibliographies of their published works. Each biographical essay was written by a member of the Academy familiar with the professional career of the deceased. For historical and bibliographical purposes, these volumes are worth returning to time and again.
The various chapters of the book originated as lectures in a seminar series and a symposium held at the University of Chicago during the period November 1956 to March 1957 under the auspices of the Chicago-Frankfurt Inter-University Program.
