About this work

Description

Hart's professional correspondence. Given the breadth of his research and personal interests and the length of his life there is some cross-over between his personal and professional correspondence. See PP/PDH/A/1 for personal material. Although the material spans the years 1954-2003 the sequence does not represent a continuous run of correspondence for this period. In particular there is no material in this section for the following years: 1957-1962, 1964-1977, 1982-1984, 1986-1989, 1991-1992. The section is arranged as follows:

1. Correspondence, 1954-1979 (relating specifically to oxidation reduction systems in relation to blood pigment and also to the therapeutic effects of Chinese medicine) 2. Correspondence 1980-1997 (relating specifically to the testing of the compound Macrocyclon) 3. Correspondence 1995-1997 4. Correspondence 1998 5. Correspondence 1999 6. Correspondence 2000 7. Correspondence 2001-2003

The sequence of general professional correspondence 1995-2003 typically includes letters to scientific colleagues regarding mutual research interests, requests for publications and comments on draft publications. These files also include off-prints and copies of published articles.
