as parasitic in origin. They say that thinning of the hair, whether general or beginning on the crown or at the temples and forehead (alopecia pityrodes), can be produced by a microorganism. Seborrhoea oleosa is generally admitted to be at times physiological, but who is to say when the physiological limit ends. The only connection that seborrhoea oleosa has with disease of the skin is that it ...

T H R E E types of hereditary hairlessness are known in the house-mouse. With Naked (Fraser, 1946) and Alopecia (Dickie, 1955), baldness results from the breaking of hairs; with hairless and its allele rhino, from the shedding of entire hairs (Fraser, 1946). The crinkled (Falconer, Fraser, & King, 1951) and ragged (Carter & Phillips, 1954) genes, however, lead to a complete absence of certain h...

Physical and structural origins of morphotropic phase boundaries (MPBs) in ferroics remain elusive despite decades of study. The leading competing theories employ either low-symmetry bridging phases or adaptive phases with nanoscale textures to describe different subsets of the macroscopic data, while the decisive atomic-scale information has so far been missing. Here we report direct atomicall...
