About the Book

The Book. It has gone through many editions. Conceived in Africa, nurtured for many years in America, it has been safely delivered by AuthorHouse UK. It tells of the authors' many journies, one of which took him to Africa, where he married Pauline. In Rhodesia, he found some important clues which revealed parts of the foetal circulation. Back in England, by examining stillborn lambs, he was able to understand the foetal circulation completely.
