Principles of Biochemistry for Students of Medicine, Agriculture and Related Sciences (Classic Reprint)

Biochemistry in close relationship to Physiology, so that the student may perceive the intimate dependence, of these two sciences upon one another and come to regard physiological chemistry in its true light, as the foundation upon which we must ultimately build our interpretations of the functions of living matter. Emphasis has been placed upon the practical applications of the subject, and not only upon applications to the practice of medicine, but also upon applications to the industries and to general biology, for while the design of the author has been primarily to write a textbook for the use of medical students and students intending to specialize in biochemistry and physiology, the attempt has also been made to compile a work which will be of service to the agricultural student, the student of general biology, or the industrial chemist who is engaged in handling biological products. I am deeply indebted to my colleague, Prof. Hardolph Wasteneys, for his valuable cooperation in preparing the manuscript for the press, correcting proofs and compiling the index; and I desire to acknowledge my indebtedness to my wife for her assistance in the preparation of some of the illustrations.
