Thepresent book isageneral referencesourcefortheacademicendocrinologist,teacher, and researcher,forgraduatestudents working in current areasof thefield,and for biologists interested in the chemical control of bodily systems,adjunctive to neural regulation. Physi- cians with special interests in endocrinology will find chapters that have considerable rele- vance totheir work.The references provided herein are numerousand updated.Thedescrip- tionsof theendocrineprocessesprovidedatainthefieldsofanatomy,histology,physiology, and pathophysiology. Overall, the reader will haveaccesstoacomprehensivesurvey of thechemical natureof hormones, their synthesis, secretion and transport, their actions and mechanisms of action, and theirdegradation and excretion, in mammals and man. The editors fully appreciate the expertise and the large amount of time spent by the contributors.This book is their work. George H.Gass Harold M. Kaplan THE EDITORS George H. Gass, Ph.D., is the retired Chairman of the Department of Basic Medical Sciences of the Oklahoma State University College of Osteopathic Medicine (formerly the OklahomaCollegeof OsteopathicMedicineandSurgery).Previously heheld thepositionof Director,EndocrinologicPharmacologyResearchLaboratoryatSouthernIllinoisUniversity, during which time he also held the positions of Professor of Physiology and Professor of Medicine. He has had a very diverse career, including industry (Lederle Laboratories) and government (Food and DrugAdministration). Dr. Gass was awarded hisdoctorateatTheOhioState University.Following graduation Dr.GassservedintheEndocrineBranchoftheFoodandDrugAdministrationinWashington, D.C., where heperformed biological assay procedures, biostatistics,and endocrine research for four years before leaving to enter higher education. Dr. Gass’ best known work in the Food and DrugAdministration wasin theco-development of the uterine weight methodfor estrogen assay and detection. Dr. Gass assumed his duties at Southern Illinois University, Department of Physiology, in the fall of 1959 and immediately upon arrival set up the Endocrinologic Pharmacology Research Laboratory. A number of students obtained their research experience under Dr. Gass in that laboratory, where it was first discovered that a quantitativemeasureofachemicalcarcinogen(diethylstilbestrol)-doseresponseofmammary tumorsexisted.Thisresearchhasbecomeaclassicand,althoughpublishedin1964,hasmore recently been repeated by theCenter forToxicological Research with Dr.Gassconsulting. Dr.Gass,as a member of thestaff ofSouthern Illinois University,received a number of honors and served on numerous occasions as a consultant for government and industry. Dr. Gassisafellowof theAmericanAssociationofScience,anAlexandervonHumboldtfellow, and aFullbright alumnus. He was requested to serve as a consultantfor the National CenterforToxicology, Food Administration, to help determine the carcinogenicity and estrogenicity of female sex hor- mones, both naturally occurring and synthetic. During his 18 years at Southern Illinois University he taught physiology and pharmacology. His last position as Chairman of the DepartmentofBasicMedicalSciencesallowedhimintimatecontactwiththebasicscientists in the college, including those in human anatomy, histology, pharmacology, physiology, behavior,and biochemistry.
