A few days ago our attention was called to a valuable article by Dr. Max Meyerhof of Cairo entitled “Ibn An-Nafīs (XIIIth Cent.) and His Theory of the Lesser Circulation,” published in the June issue of Isis (No. 65, vol. XXIII. I, pp. 100-120). We had corresponded with Dr. At-Tatawi Bey and in his answer he stated that he had turned over his data to Doctor Meyerhof and had referred our letter to the latter. In his second letter dated March 26, 1935, At-Tatawi Bey stated that he had received an answer from Doctor Meyerhof in which he gives reference to two manuscripts but no mention of any publication or article on the subject.
