Synopsis

Explore the electric language of life—from nerve signals to muscle movement and plant currents. This volume delves into secondary electromotive changes, the action of electricity on nerve and muscle, and the surprising electrical phenomena found in plants. With clear explanations and careful observation, it reveals how currents shape biological processes and how researchers interpret these signals.

In accessible chapters drawn from the work of pioneers in the field, you’ll encounter:


  • How nerve and muscle respond to electrical stimulation, including opening and closing excitations and after-effects.

  • The role of polarity, electrode placement, and current direction in producing measurable variations on galvanometers.

  • Experiments spanning molluscan nerves, frog nerves, and plant tissues to illustrate core concepts.

  • Discussions of the limits of interpretation and the integration of physical and chemical explanations.


Ideal for readers of scientific history and physiology, this edition provides a detailed look at early theories and enduring questions about bioelectricity.

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.
