Bill,

I apologize for my quick question. I overlooked that this was a medical
monograph. But there was also a Rumanian linguist with similar credential on his books.

 1960s. On the title page the author's name was preceded by the full
 set of titles one might have expected in a non-communist country
 of the region: "doctor professor academician" preceded by "comrade".
