CATTELL
However, England entered World War I when Cattell was nine. When a
local house was converted into a hospital, Cattell observed the
wounded as they were brought from the battlefields. This experience
turned him into an unusually serious boy.
He continued to publish more than four articles per year and two books per decade
through the 1970s and 1980s, and remained active in writing even as he became sick with
colon cancer, prostate cancer, and heart disease in the 1990s. He died of congestive heart
failure in his sleep at his home in Honolulu on February 2, 1998.
