FOREWORD
THIS IS THE FISH VOLUME in the series of Memorial Tn~tes
issued periodically by the National Academy of Engineering to
honor the cleceased members and foreign associates of the
Academy and to recognize their achievements. It is intended
that these volumes will stanc! as an encluring record of the many
contributions of engineers and engineering to the benefit of
humankind. In all cases, the authors of the tributes are contem-
poraries or colleagues who hacl personal knowledge of the
interests and the engineering accomplishments of the deceased
members and foreign associates.
The National Academy of Engineering is a private organiza-
tion established in 1964 to share in the responsibility given the
National Academy of Sciences under its congressional charter
signed by President Lincoln in 1863 to examine and report on
questions of science and engineering at the request of the
federal government. Individuals are elected to the National
Academy of Engineering on the basis of significant contribu-
tions to engineering theory and practice and to the literature of
engineering or demonstrated unusual accomplishments in the
pioneering of new and developing fields of technology.
Alexander H. Flax
Home Secretary
