Viscount Samuel, of Mount Carmel and of Toxteth in the City of Liverpool, is a title in the Peerage of the United Kingdom.[2] It was created on 8 June 1937 for the Liberal politician and former High Commissioner of the British Mandate of Palestine, Herbert Samuel. His grandsons, the third and fourth Viscounts, were respectively a prominent Israeli chemist and neurobiologist, and an oil executive. As of 2014 the title is held by the 4th Viscount's son, who succeeded as fifth Viscount in that year.
