Biological Transmutations, and Their Applications in Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Ecology, Medicine, Nutrition, Agriculture, Geology

Rear cover notes: "This English edition of the works of Louis Kervran is intended for everyone: scholar, layman, or college student. It could have been directed to a scholar's mind exclusively, presenting itself to him in cold scientific terms, but this would have slowed down progress. If, in Mr. Kervran's words, scientists 'have made of science another job,' it would not be ethical to present it to them alone. The problems of ecology, medicine, and nutrition, and the alarming rise of radioactivity are too acute to be dealt with solely through academic channels. It is within everyone's ability to comprehend the biological transmutations as long as there is a desire for true knowledge. The understanding of the biological transmutations requires nothing more than the casting aside of all rigid thought while studying them. Transmutation is no more and no less than a reality that teaches us about change. In change we find life, and by change we create life. Our only constant is our goal of becoming Man. The principles of biological transmutation affect every phase of our existence. They are already being applied without patent or license by industrial and business companies who are marketing industrial, dietetic and pharmaceutical products based on Kervran's research. Transmutations are now recognized in medicine. They have opened the door to new treatments and therapeutics for reputedly 'incurable' diseases. There are solutions already projected for curing arteriosclerosis, rheumatism, excessive arterial tensions, decalcification, kidney stones, hormonal deficiencies, etc., all in a natural way, without danger to the patient. Agronomists are already practicing Kervran's findings on a large scale. Dietitians are the biggest beneficiaries, because dietetics is too close to a man's body and soul to remain an academic and isolated science...."
