Abstract

I am honored to write the prefatory chapter for the inaugural volume of the . This publishing venture signals that pathology takes its rightful place alongside the other biomedical sciences.

I thought it may be of interest to some to delineate how a circuitous path led me into a career in experimental pathology and to give some of the flavor of a past era in experimental approaches. Thus, my title.
