Tetsuo Nozoe: the world traveler, on a determined trajectory

Tetsuo Nozoe embarked on many grand tours during his lifetime. The Grand Tours of late 1966 are among his most impressive, spanning Europe and North America with short trips back to Japan in between. Jeffrey I. Seeman takes us along these tours, showing how Nozoe was able to squeeze in a breathtaking number of visits into his "wish list" of organic chemistry, at a time before internet and mobile phones. This Essay and the interactive website that accompanies the Nozoe Autograph Book project are available free-access for at least a three-year period at http://www.tcr.wiley-vch.de/nozoe.
