Hal Gray s work also played a vital role in ensuring that radiography would be a safe procedure for the hundreds of millions of persons in whom X-ray pictures have been taken. The book offers fascinating insights into both the history of radiobiology and the life of Hal.

Great influences on Hal s life and studies, including his unusual high school, Christ s Hospital, and his firm moral beliefs, are described.
