Note
The advert placed by Donovan in the Athenaeum on 23 Mar 1912 (issue 4404, p 325) asks: 'Will some physicist who has leisure, and expert knowledge of problems usually classed under phenomena of Heat, answer a few questions by correspondence for a worker upon an original line of inquiry bearing on the explanation of Life and Mind in exclusively physical terms? - Address (Mr.) J. Donovan, 22, Inverness Terrace, Hyde Park, W.'
