Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book presents the results of numerous investigations carried out by the author, culminating in the invention of several devices and apparatuses used to study human muscular contraction, particularly in relation to fatigue. These inventions include ergographs, employing different muscular actions, such as voluntary and electrically stimulated contractions, and several improved accessories for use with those instruments. The author's detailed descriptions of both the devices and the experimental procedures offer insights into the methods and practices of electrophysiology and human physiology prevalent in the late 19th century and early 20th century. These methods laid the groundwork for much of the research that continues in the field today.
