Abstract

Abstract Abstract Extract When the New Zealand Veterinary Association decided to publish a New Zealand Veterinary Journal in 1952, it made a wise choice in appointing J. C. Newhook as its first honorary editor. A successful editor requires to be a man with a very wide knowledge in the whole field of veterinary science outside his own specialty, with a well-developed critical faculty and with the ability to write good lucid prose and to give painstaking attention to detail. In 1952, the Association chose such a man.
