Stapleton (Rockefeller Archive Center) collects 15 essays on the development of research at one of the world's leading scientific organizations. After two context-setting chapters, the book concentrates on case studies that demonstrate how the university became eminent in many fields, including tissue culture, cancer research, and cell biology. The contributions of notable researchers are highlighted, and the employment of women scientists is discussed. Twenty-eight b&w historical photos are included.
