Abstract

Professor Braibanti has suggested that it might be useful to give some attention at the start of this School to the historical aspects of the application of thermochemistry to biology. Although I guess it is safe to assume that I have been interested in this general area for a longer period that anyone else in this School, such longevity certainly does not qualify me as as historian, and I have found this to be a difficult assignment.
