This is a memoir in the form of adventures of an itinerant
pathologist from medical college to cancer research and teaching.
The book takes the reader from the streets of the old city of
London and St. Bartholomew's Hospital to medical schools and
research centers in several European countries, Africa, Canada and
the USA. Although autobiographical the emphasis of the story is
found in the biographical sketches of the many fascinating
characters encountered in this journey. All of the events are true,
and although some of the individuals identities have been protected
most are named; indeed they are truly part of my journey. Attempts
have been made to describe diseases, their operations and autopsies
in non-technical language expressing the excitement of discoveries
particularly in cancer research and experimental treatments. This
is not a treatise or a textbook but the life story of those who
have devoted years to following in the footsteps of disease. The
book is directed to all who are intrigued by new adventures, travel
and the desire to have a deeper appreciation of body, mind and
spirit.
