Jokichi Takamine: A Record of His American Achievements is a biographical account of the life and work of Jokichi Takamine, a Japanese chemist who made significant contributions to the field of biochemistry in the United States. Written by K.K. Kawakami, the book traces Takamine's journey from his humble beginnings in Japan to his rise as a prominent scientist in America. It covers his early education in Japan, his move to the United States, and his groundbreaking research on adrenaline and other hormones. The book also delves into Takamine's personal life, including his marriage to a prominent American woman and his involvement in Japanese-American relations during World War II. Through extensive research and interviews with Takamine's colleagues and family members, Kawakami provides a comprehensive and insightful portrait of this pioneering scientist and his enduring legacy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
