FOREWORD Hypertension is today one of the major and most complex problems of medical practice. A s i n all other areas affecting human welfare, chemistry must play a part i n its final solution. When the chemist, the physiologist, the pharmacologist, and the clinician can meet on common ground to discuss the factors involved and can join forces i n planning new lines of attack, we may confidently expect new advances in a better understanding of, and i n methods for, control of this disease. Grateful acknowledgment is made to William G . Clark, who was primarily responsible for the program and who acted as chairman of the symposium, and to H a r r y Goldblatt for the introduction to this volume. We particularly appreciate the fine cooperation of the speakers in participating i n the symposium and i n preparing their manuscripts for publication. GLENN
