by John Ziman. Professor of Physics at Bristol University
In 1974 a young American biologist drew ink patches on the backs of some mice. In so doing he deliberately faked the results of experiments which, had they been genuine, would have produced a dramatic step forward in tissue transplantation. The story of the patchwork mouse, John Ziman argues, is a contemporarymoralityplaysetina scientific laboratory.

translated from the 17th-century Irish Of BRYAN MERRYMAN by FRANK O'CONNOR
Then I saw with an awesome feeling
A building ablaze from floor to ceiling,
Lighted within by guttering torches
Among massive walls and echoing arches,
And the Queen of the Fairies sat alone
At the end of the hall on a gilded throne ...
