Abstract :
The chronology of lifetime publications authored and/or co-authored by Dr. Ernst L. Wynder spans a rich assortment of topics relating to the etiology and prevention of chronic diseases. Dr. Wynder’s interdisciplinary approach to research in cancer and heart disease embraces the disciplines of epidemiology, biology, pathology, chemistry, biochemistry, tobacco sciences, and nutrition as well as health behavior, and health education. His works reflect his attention to diverse subjects from methodology in scientific endeavors, to mechanisms in carcinogenesis, brain development, alternative medicine, principles of disease prevention, history of medicine, and societal issues, as well as philosophy, and religion. In 1972 Dr. Wynder created the journal Preventive Medicine as an international forum for the exchange of ideas that address the promotion of health and prevention of disease in our time. Many of his ideas were developed and nurtured in the symposia and workshops the Journal has published.
