Description An exploration of the claim by Sir Robert Robinson that he was first in formulating the electronic theory of organic reactions and that Sir Christopher Ingold received much of the credit. Saltzman reviews the literature of the period, traces the development of the theory, and offers his concusion on the value of each man's work. (G. B. KAUFFMAN)
