PRIMITIVE ARTISTS OF YUGOSLAVIA by Oto Bihalji-Merin. 200 pages. McGraw-Hill. $16.95. The impact of these native artists, most of them peasants, is almost unbearably and perhaps unwittingly sad. The skies glower. A hired man slumps by his ax, in utter fatigue or despair. In a village cafe, the dancers do not smile. An old woman nods by candlelight, her face pale as death.

...incredible drive for perfection, the unending concern for his patients, the utter domination of his life by his profession, have won Michael Ellis DeBakey the nickname of "the Texas Tornado." The TV scriptwriter who created such a character would sooner or later conjure up flashbacks to a boyhood in the family drugstore and an early love for medicine. In DeBakey's case, his life outdoes such fiction...
