✦ Synopsis
Such studies might be illustrated by C. Coulson's section, "Electron Configuration and Carcinogenesis" and C. Heidelberger's "Applications of Radioisotopes to Studies of Carcinogenesis and Tumor Metabolism." These increased efforts need not preclude the other studies which may provide more immediate means of relief and continue to save many lives.
As the editors state, it is their purpose "that this and succeeding volumes of this series shall reflect (the) steady and inevitable march of the tides of our knowledge and increasing understanding (of cancer)." This purpose seems to have been achieved with notable success in this first volume. It is to be fervently hoped that the volumes which begin to record the understanding necessary to solution will not be many volumes separated from the present one.
