would be \cry grateful for any ackicc as to the possibilit)' of comjjlcting the list, 

 filling its gaps, and correcting its inaccuracies. The list is given in alphabetic 

 order. This has its drawbacks (e.g., as compared with a subject breakdown of 

 the material), but also its advantages. The most important of its advantages 

 is the fact that an alphabetic list provides an opportunity to collect in one place 

 all the works of each of the investigators who have worked in the field of 

 ontophysiology. In addition, this order facilitates greatly the finding of indi- 

 \ idual studies. 



In pre-Revolutionary Russia, studies on age-associated physiology, bio- 

 ciiemistry, and morphology appeared periodically in individual journals. Some 

 of these journals are still being published. Up to 1917, periodical collections 

 de\oted to ontoplusiological problems were extremely rare. 



After October [tr.: i.e., the 1917 Revolution], there was a considerable 

 increase in the number of studies on age-associated physiology. They are 

 published in many journals, and many of these first appeared during this 

 period. Scientific conferences on these problems are organized regularly, and 

 the results reported therein appear in periodic collections and special publica- 

 tions. A series of outstanding monographs are being published on the problems 

 of aging, promotion of longevity, age-associated physiology, biochemistry and 

 morphology, and pediatrics. 



The following list gives the names and years of publication of a number of 

 the basic scientific journals that have published comprehensive bibliographies 

 on these problems.
