Executive Summary of the Decade
Isaac Asimov writes lovingly about this decade and the one before in "Before the Golden Age: 8 Science Fiction Classics of the Thirties" [Fawcett/Doubleday, 1974, paperback].

Walter B. Cannon Papers
(1.5 linear feet) B C163.1 American Philosophical Society 105 South Fifth Street * Philadelphia, PA 19106-3386 Table of contents Abstract A key spokesman for the medical establishment against the antivivisection movement, Walter B. Cannon was head of the Council for the Defence of Medical Research of the American Medical Association from 1908 to 1936. He and his colleague William W. Keen monitored antivivisectionist activity, mobilized the medical profession, lobbied politicians, testified in public hearings, and wrote tirelessly in defense of animal experimentation. Cannon was George Higginson Professor of Physiology at Harvard Medical School and head of its physiology department. Keen was a prominent surgeon and neurologist from Philadelphia. The Cannon Papers consist of over 1.5 linear feet of correspondence, 1905-1928, primarily between Cannon (1871-1945) and Keen (1837-1932) regarding their mutual opposition to the antivivisection movement.

    (New York: Scribner's, 1923)
    [Edward Bok came to America as a boy and became a successful publisher and businessman. Thanks to his work in publishing and his own outgoing nature, the young Bok came into contact with many of the leading writers of his time, including Robert Louis Stevenson in 1887. In his autobiography he refers to himself in the third person as "Bok." This is his description of Stevenson at work.] One day Mr. Burlingame asked Bok to take some proofs to Stevenson at his
    home; thinking it might be a propitious moment to interest the author in
    the popular acclaim that followed the publication of Doctor Jekyll and
    Mr. Hyde, Bok put a bunch of press notices in his pocket. He found the
    author in bed, smoking his inevitable cigarette. As the proofs were to be brought back, Bok waited, and thus had an
