The Royal Society: Science in the Making

Referee's report by Sidney Harris Cox Martin, on a paper 'Further remarks on the production of a malarial form of South African Horse-Sickness' by A Edington

Reference number: RR/16/48

Date: 28 November 1903

Description

Sectional Committee: [Physiology and Zoology]

Not recommended for publication in Proceedings. Martin agrees with McFadyen's criticism of Edington's experiments. Martin thought he had said in his report that Edington was probably working with two viruses. He further thought that the experiments were very carefully conducted and that the author could probably do good work under direction. Martin does not see any advantage in reading the paper if it is not published in the Proceedings and on the whole thinks it had better not be accepted.
