Ronald Ross
From Philosopedia
Ross, Ronald [Sir] (1857–1932)
Ross was a physician who won the Nobel Prize in 1902 for his work on malaria.
He was knighted in 1911. He had been a member (1881–1899) of the Indian Medical Service, and he was a professor of tropical medicine at University College, Liverpool.
In a volume of poems and a book of literary plays, Ross expounded his Theistic Rationalism. In one poem, “Dogma,” he rejected all Churches and creeds and wanted “no priest but conscience, and no lord but law.”
