Abstract
THE historical introduction to this series of papers is by the doyen of American cancer research, W. H. Woglom, who with brilliant lucidity and charming modesty of style describes the use of the innumerable agents of mineral, plant, animal or synthetic origin which have figured in the untiring attack on malignant disease by chemotherapy. He believes that hormone therapy has given the first hopes of ultimate success.
