Autorenporträt
Mary Rose Barrington, born in London far back in 1926, became a lawyer and charity administrator, assisting in the management of property interests, finance, and welfare for groups of almshouses. Her non-professional activities have included working for voluntary euthanasia and animal protection, applying her legal resources to these causes. She was a vice-president of the Society for Psychical Research, which brings her full circle back to the time when she became president of the Oxford University SPR, psychical research having been a main interest since her schooldays.
