The informal autobiography details John West's journey from obtaining his medical degree in Adelaide, Australia, to his significant contributions at the Royal Postgraduate Medical School in London. Notably, he played a key role in pioneering research using radioactive oxygen-15, leading to the first insights into the uneven regional distribution of blood flow in the lungs. The narrative offers a personal perspective on his professional experiences and the evolution of medical research.
