A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The rapid growth of interest in the chemical problems of medical and biological science is shown by the great increase in the amount of material which must be included in each succeeding edition. Although this latest edition has been subjected to extensive revision and many minor alterations, yet the general plan has not been changed. The rapidly growing information concerning the nutritional factors that are essential to growth and repair, and without which serious Deficiency Diseases may arise, has necessitated the introduction of a new chapter to cover this subject, the importance of which has been accentuated by the war and its sequels. The growing bulk of material on the Reactions of Immunity required a rearrangement of this material, so that a separate chapter on Anaphylaxis and Allergy has been provided, for purposes of convenience. Numerous sections have been entirely rewritten, and few pages have not required revision or addition. In order to prevent the increasing material that must be included from resulting in too cumbersome a volume, much more of the matter is printed in smaller type. It is hoped that this arrangement will achieve its aim without serious reduction in facility of use. The author recognizes fully that it would be easily possible to report the existing state of knowledge on the topics covered in Chemical Pathology in a much briefer space, if only completely established evidence were included. With the object of serving as a guide to investigators, and with the hope of stimulating further investigations, much more than this minimal amount of existing evidence is included.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
