Excerpt from The Respiratory Function of the Blood After all, the pleasantest memories of a cruise are those of the men with whom one has sailed. The debt which I owe to my colleagues, whether older or younger than myself, will be evident enough to any reader of the book. It leaves me well-nigh bankrupt - a condition well-known to most sailors. But I owe another large debt of gratitude to those who, as teachers, showed me the fascination of physiology, to Dr Kimmins*, and especially to Dr Anderson-t. At a later stage I learned much from Dr Gaskell, Professor Langley and Dr Haldane. Formerly science master at the Leys School now Chief Inspector of the Educational Department of the London County Council. Formerly supervisor in physiology to King's College, now Master of Gonville and Caius College. There are occasions on which every sailor of the deep sea has to ship a pilot. Mr A. V. Hill has brought me into those harbours which are best approached through the, to me, unknown channels of mathematics. I have to thank him and also Miss Dale for much help with my proofs.
