Dr. Lee was for a score of years
connected with Yerkes Observa
tory and is at present director of
Dearborn Observatory at North
western university. He has written
about 60 research pomphlets and
books on astronomical subjects. He
is a member of the American As
tronomical society, and has been
for a quarter-century a Fellow of
the Royal Astronomical Society of
England.
.. "'".The preface of the book ex
plains its purpose:
"This book has been written for
all of those many people who
wonder about the distances which
the physical sciences deal with,
and how they are determined. An
understanding of the methods
used, the. care with which scien
tists use all possible means to
check their results, and especial
ly their jealous regard for their
own confidence in what they are
doing must inspire trust in their
conclusions on the part of the
reader."
That the problems of knowing
and overcoming distances are very
human, Dr. Lee illustrates by his
opening paragraphs:
"The every day experiences
of all mankind throughout the
ages has been saturated with
distance. From the beginning of
the day to Its end and even in
the ambiguous and adventur
ess texture of dreams the one
common problem of living is to
overcome distance. Time Is In
cidental, usually forgotten be
cause we seem to have unlim
ited amounts of it, but distance
is invariably present ... My
toilet articles are In the next
room. I mast go there to use
them. I must go to the dining
room for my breakfast or have
It brought to me. In our busi
ness days we are continually
battling: - with distance. Daring;
vacations we take distance Into
our arms with genuine affection."
In the preface. Dr. Lee also
gives Florence B. Lee credit for
suggesting the clever title,
The book is dedicated "To the
memory of my father and mother
who understood my childhood's
dreams and early guided me into
pleasures of an intellectual life.'
Dr. Lee's mother is well remem
bered at Silverton, for Miss Chris
tina Lee made her home here for
many years. The library staff, in
commenting on the new book, ex
pressed pleasure at having a copy
of a book written by a son of a
patron who added sd much pleas-
ure by her library visits as did
the late Mrs. Lee.
