    If I remember rightly, he became a Lecturer in Psychiatry, and eventually left his own medical library to the Department of Psychiatry. His son , (later Sir) Nicholas Fairbairn, became a colourful MP.

    Congratulations on putting this up – the first of many, I hope. Are you open to suggestions for future entries to the database?

      Indeed, Peter. His library is now in EUL and, along with his papers, held at NLS, are the basis for this project.
