Additional evaluations of Einthoven’s work (by not personally acquainted authors) including Johansson (chairman Nobel Prize Committee) together with comments on Kraus and Nicolai; furthermore Burch and De Pasquale; Katz and Hellerstein; Shapiro; Cooper (Sections 1 and 4–7)

Abstract

In this chapter some additional evaluations of Einthoven’s work are reviewed in the light of the data presented in precedent chapters. It will be seen, that these appraisals provide information about Einthoven’s work, which has to be examined critically, as there is a wide divergency in factual accuracy and in carefulness of quotations. In contrast to chapters 5 and 6 none of the authors mentioned here could draw on previous personal acquaintance with Einthoven. For sake of clarity, this chapter is divided into 7 sections.
