Obituary — John Hugh Mitchell Available to Purchase

Dr J. H. Mitchell, who was a member of the Editorial Board of this journal since its foundation in 1972, died at his home in Paisley, Scotland, on the morning of 7 August 1988, at the age of 59. This is, indeed, a tragic loss. The medical and computer worlds are very much poorer for the loss of a pioneer and outstanding contributor to knowledge in the domain of the applications of computers in medicine. I am also mourning the passing of a loyal friend and splendid collaborator over a period of more than 20 years.
