Boston University (Boston, MA 02215-1300)
Dorothea Il Raacke (Project Director: September 1976 to present)

To write a biography of Herbert McLean Evans. Evans was a scientist, distinguished in the field of endocrinology, was a noted embryologist, and was a collector of Japanese prints. His discoveries, i.e., Vitamin E, pituitary hormones, were never rewarded. The book hopes to clarify why he was never appreciated.
