Excerpt from Principles of General Physiology
IN the preparation of courses of lectures dealing with various physiological processes I have found considerable difficulty, and spent much time, in the extraction from books and original papers, many of them not biological, of material of fundamental importance in the proper treatment of the subject. The mechanism of reactions in heterogeneous systems may be mentioned. It seemed to me, therefore, that the results of this labour might be of use to others, whose work does not allow them sufficient time to read articles which do not appear to bear upon their particular domain of science. In arranging these facts, however, it became manifest that a somewhat wider treatment would be of more value, so that the book might be of service to all desiring a general, elementary, treatment of what may be called abstract physiology, as distinct from the applied physiology required by the agricultural, medical, or veterinary student for the purpose of his profession. In extenuation of my conduct in producing a work on physiology for the use, as I venture to hope, of all those who have any interest in science, I should like to quote a few words by Huxley to be found in his address, On the Educational Value of the Natural History Sciences (huxley, 1902-1903, p. 59 - see Bibliography). He gives an answer to the question.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This accessible and comprehensive book offers a thorough exploration of general physiology, examining the fundamental properties of living organisms at the level of cellular processes and physicochemical phenomena. It begins by establishing a broad understanding of essential concepts such as energy, free energy, entropy, and osmotic pressure, providing a solid foundation for further study. The author then delves into surface action, examining the behavior of matter at interfaces and its relevance to phenomena observed in biological systems. This foundation is further strengthened through discussions on colloids, their stability, and their involvement in various physiological processes. The book places special emphasis on the principles of thermodynamics and their application to biological processes, providing a deeper understanding of energy conversions and the efficiency of biological systems. The author effectively combines theoretical principles with real-world examples and case studies, fostering a tangible connection between abstract concepts and practical applications. Throughout the book, the author encourages critical thinking and promotes a deeper understanding of biological phenomena through the lens ofç çchemical principles. This comprehensive resource offers a wealth of knowledge for students, researchers, and anyone interested in gaining a deeper understanding of the physical and chemical processes underlying life. Its lucid explanations, engaging writing style, and extensive coverage make it an invaluable addition to the field of general physiology. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
