Some of those who have described such effects have wisely refrained from the conclusion that a particular effect necessarily represents a direct and specific response to an anterior lobe hormone. During the years ahead of us the number of truly direct and specific effects, as well as of others of quite secondary and non-specific nature, may be expected to multiply.In much that I may...Literature Cited1.
