Professor Adami taught at McGill University for more than twenty years. He contributed greatly to the literature of his subject. He realized the important part that pathology must play in the growth and the application of medical science, and toward the end of his life he edited "The War Story of the Canadian Army Medical Corps." He was unanimously elected vice chancellor of the University of Liverpool in June, 1919, and he carried on his work in this field until his death in 1926. The memoir is presented chronologically in relationship to the cities and the educational institutions with which he was associated. It includes also a list of his publications and estimates, by his colleagues, of his work. Pathologists, and all of those whose lives brought them into relationship with this distinguished man, will surely find in the volume much of interest.
