vii, 1 leaf, 246 pp. Original cloth. Top of spine rubbed. Very Good. First Edition. "For the discovery of streptomycin, Dr. Waksman received a Nobel Prize in 1952. "As important as streptomycin might have been, the greatest contribution of Dr. Waksman to chemotherapy was to pioneer the systematic search for antagonistic soil microorganisms and to stress the tremendous potentialities of actinomycetes in this domain. [They] have become, in great part through his efforts, the producers of the most important antibiotics of today, except for penicillin" (Lechevalier & Solotorovsky, Three Centuries of Microbiology, p. 487). Selman A. WAKSMAN was awarded the Nobel Prize in 1952 "for his discovery of streptomycin, the first antibiotic effective against tuberculosis.".
