Beschreibung

14p., a single staplebound fascicle of standard size, 11x8.5 inch inches, text reproduced from a keyboard-set ms on alkaline paperstock. Good copy, we see nothing wrong with it, let's say very good. Uncredited, but possibly the actual publisher: Study of Child Growth and Development and Disease Patterns in Primitive Cultures. Gajdusek is a guy who can walk into the most remote of villiages, feel comfortable, grasp local language clearly enough to document intimate diseases, and read himself to sleep over Faulkner's "As I Lay Dying." Which he loved. In this address to coevals he quotes William Wordsworth extensively, and reminds his fellow scholars that since the cogitations of Leonardo da Vinci no progress has been made in the codification of --at this point he's lost us.
