Letter from a Tulane pulmonary physician to a New York defense attorney commenting on a catalog of medical literature on lung cancer and asbestos prepared by Phil Enterline. It divides the literature into time periods from 1935 on and gives his judgment of how strongly each period's literature supported a causal link, rating it 'possible,' then 'probable,' then 'proven' or 'definite' after 1955.
