Book Description
Excerpt from General Physiology, an Outline of the Science of Life The plan of the present book first assumed fixed form during a journey which I made in the year 1890 to different points on the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea for the purpose of making comparative-physiological researches. After my return my uni versity lectures in Jena gave me an opportunity to present the collected material in connected form. But the greater part of the labour remained to be performed, and in the summer of 1892 I began the writing of the book. Although for nearly ten years I have been busy with the problems of general physiology and have endeavoured to contribute something to their solution, so much labour has been associated with the collection, examination, selec tion completion, and arrangement of the much scattered material, that the book has progressed slowly - and with varied feelings on, my part I have often wondered whether the result would accord with the enthusiasm and love with which the task was undertaken. Only the criticism of my colleagues can decide this. It is not to be expected that a book which brings together for the first time in a unified form a mass of material hitherto regarded as hetero geneous, shall upon its first appearance pretend to completeness. I cherish no illusions that I have succeeded more than approx1 mately. I am fully aware that many faults and errors must have crept in, and these I beg my colleagues in friendliness to correct. It has afforded me especial satisfaction that one of my American colleagues, Professor Frederic S Lee, of New York, in an address before the New York Academy of Sciences has developed simultaneously and independently the same ideas regarding the claims of modern physiology as are presented in detail by myself in the first chapter of this book. These ideas have also been expressed by me elsewhere, especially in an article in the Monist (chicago, If a book is to reach a wide circle of readers, its language must be neither too technical nor too prosaic. I have endeavoured to comply with this requirement. I wished to write something that would appeal first to my fellow physiologists, and offer them, besides certain new facts and ideas, a summary of our scattered knowledge. But at the same time I wished the work to give to any interested scientific reader, whether a student of medicine.
