gave on 'Hemorheology An Introduction', with George W. Scott Blair as co-author, before the 8. Congress of the International Society on Blood Transfusion 1). I was surprised to see Professor Bun'ichi Tamamushi, the colloid and surface chemist, whom I had met a few years earlier in England and thereafter at the 3. International Congress on Rheology, held in 1958 at Bad Oeynhausen, Germany. He introduced me to the physicist Syoten Oka and two of his associates immediately following the lecture. One of them was the physicist Professor Eiichi Fukada. During this first visit to Japan, I met several times with Syoten Oka and Bun'ichi Tamamushi. At that time we discussed many problems regarding the new science of biorheology and hemorheology, its most active branch. Recently I redefined hemorheology as the biorheology of the vessel-blood organ. The interface between its two portions is the endoendothelial fibrin ( ogenin ) lining ( EEFL ). At one of my meetings in 1960 with Syoten and Bun'ichi I mentioned that Mr. Robert Maxwell, Publisher of Pergamon Press, initiated in 1959 the journal BIORHEOLOGY and invited me and George W. Scott Blair to act as its Editors-in-Chief. The journal started publication in 1962 with Syoten Oka as one of its Editors and with the cell biologist Professor Noburo Kamiya of Osaka as well as the pathologist Professor Satimaru Seno of Okayama as Members of the Honorary Advisory Editorial Board. Syoten Oka and I met on each of my subsequent five visits to Japan as well as during international congresses in USA, European countries, Israel and Japan. We became friends. I regretted very much that due to Syoten Oka's illness we could not meet in 1989 during my visit to Japan. The science of rheology was first introduced in Japan by Bun'ichi Tamamushi. Noburo Kamiya was already well known internationally for his outstanding research on the biorheology of cytoplasm. In my Plenary Lecture on Rheological Problems in Biology' at the 1. International Congress on Rheology, held in Holland in 1948, I referred in some detail to Kamiya's work 2). Neither Bun'ichi Tamamushi nor Syoten Oka were aware of Kamiya's studies when I met with them in Tokyo in 1960. It gave me special pleasure to learn that I had to come from New York to make this known to them. When I visited Noburo Kamiya in his laboratory at the University of Osaka after the
