E Segr? London: University of Chicago Press 1970 pp x + 276 price ?3.15 All that might be hoped for in a biography of one Nobel Prize winner in physics by another has been realized in Emilio Segr?'s biography of his friend, Enrico Fermi. It is a relatively slim book and yet, thanks to speaking 'noght o word more than was nede' and to a truly masterly drawing of Fermi's character, along with his physics and the events through which he moved, Segr? has provided us with a brilliant appreciation of one of the most pre-eminent figures of modern physics.

The Wheel Turns Full Circle

July 1950 · The British journal of radiology

L. H. Gray

As the 6th International Congress of Radiology draws near and we see the names of friends from overseas in print on the Congress programme, or on the registration lists, we think of the many letters of welcome we should like to have sent but failed to find the time to write. On behalf of the membership of the British Institute of Radiology, we offer a very hearty welcome to every Congress visitor ... [Show full abstract] and we ask them to accept this with all the warmth of a personal letter. Since its first meeting in London in 1925, the Congress has met in Stockholm, Paris, Zurich, and Chicago, gaining in strength at each successive meeting. Those enthusiastic radiologists who, with the whole-hearted support of the X-ray industry, organised the first meeting in London, only intended it as a preliminary to an International Congress, but somewhat to their embarrassment, its scope grew so rapidly that in the end a total of 470 delegates from 25 different countries attended the meetings. The largest delegations from abroad were from Germany and the U.S.A., Russia and Belgium coming next in order of numbers. At the forthcoming Conference, delegates are expected from 49 countries and the total attendance bids fair to exceed that at any previous Congress—but not, we hope, to the detriment of the personal contacts which chiefly justify the complex organisational structure necessary to provide for the exchange of ideas through the spoken word between 2500 people.

What Does It Mean to Live an “Extraordinary Life?”

December 2011

James Garbarino

What does it mean to live an “extraordinary” life? Dangerous question for a “recovering narcissist.” But this was the question posed to me in November 2008, when I was asked to speak at an event at my home university – Loyola University Chicago. Taking on the task of preparing to give this lecture – to a luncheon crowd composed of students, staff, faculty, and clergy – was an occasion to ponder ... [Show full abstract] the ways in which my life of six plus decades might be considered “extraordinary,” and so I spent many a walk with my canine companions Hope and Dharma pondering the question.
