Das in Calcutta, who asked me to simply accept, for eventual research, a mountain of anthropometric information he had accrued, as he used to be unwell and didn't anticipate to outlive to examine it himself. the knowledge supplied the astonishment; twenty-two anthropometric characters recorded each six months or a yr, over a interval of 14 years, in a combined longitudinal learn of a few 560 young ones, elderly six months to 20 years. such a lot have been in households with siblings additionally within the examine, and each baby used to be measured at any time when by means of S. R. Das himself. The archive used to be particular, combining the non-public anthropometry of R. H. Whitehouse within the Harpenden development research and the relations procedure of the Fels development examine. This was once a research of which neither I, nor somebody of my acquaintance, had heard. Even in India, Prof. Das' paintings used to be scarcely recognized.
