Injury, Recovery and Death, in Relation to Conductivity and Permeability.

Abstract

THIS volume endeavors to treat certain aspects of biology according to the spirit and methods of the exact sciences.The treatment is confined to certain funda- mental problems which have been studied quantitatively.These studies lead to a theory of some aspects of injury, recovery, and death, as well as of antagonism and per- meability.The behavior of the organism in these respects may be predicted with a satisfactory degree of accuracy by means of the equations which express the theory in mathematical form.
