Abstract
THIS book, which may be said to embody the long experience and considered views of one of the leading exponents of the X-ray method of structure analysis, is not concerned exclusively with the giant molecules of biological tissues, since it deals also with ‘laboratory’ colloids; but it is a direct and valuable contribution to a theme which must, deep down, be the theme of all scientific research. It seems to be clear now that we are living in an epoch marking, among other things, the decisive entry of physics and chemistry into biology, and the passage of time can only emphasise the great part played by X-ray analysis. The sooner, therefore, that its aims and principles become more familiar, the better.
