The October 2015, Volume 58, Issue 10, is a “Special Issue” of the American Journal of Industrial Medicine dedicated to “Historical Perspectives,” of Selikoff. No serious historian need have applied; the collection consists of short articles by adulatory former students, and from the voice of Big Labor’s heavy hand on medical research, Sheldon Samuels. Still, students of the Selikoff phenomenon might find the ramblings of “The Lobby” revealing of its preoccupations and prejudices.
