Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fascinating world of physiological regulations, a concept that has intrigued scientists for centuries. The author, a pioneer in the field of quantitative physiology, presents a detailed and meticulously researched account of how living organisms maintain a remarkable level of constancy in their internal environments. Drawing upon a wealth of data gathered from numerous species, including dogs, humans, and even single-celled organisms, the author explores the intricate mechanisms by which these constancies are achieved. Building upon the foundational work of giants like Claude Bernard and L.J. Henderson, the author unveils a new perspective on the concept of regulation, emphasizing the crucial role of quantitative analysis and intricate relationships between various physiological variables. The book's exploration of how organisms respond to disturbances in their water content, including sudden excesses and deficits, offers a compelling insight into the body's remarkable ability to maintain equilibrium. Through detailed descriptions of tolerance curves, exchange rates, and the complex interplay of various physiological processes, the author provides a comprehensive picture of how organisms actively control their internal environments. The book's insights into the dynamic interplay of physiological variables and their role in maintaining equilibrium offer a compelling understanding of the fundamental principles that govern life. It is a testament to the enduring power of scientific inquiry and its ability to illuminate the intricate workings of the natural world.
