What reading level is An Introduction to Biophysics book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The actual thickness of the carotids as measured by Mac- William and Kesson are 1-74 and 0-61 mm. respectively. Of course, the main elastic resistance to distortion is met with in the muscular tunica media which in the ox is 1-12 mm. and in the sheep 0-42 wide. Either pair of figures gives a close approxima- tion to the ratio 3 to 1 .
The valves of the heart and veins are interesting mechanical structures. During the two years that Harvey studied at the University of Padua, Fabricius, the renow...ned Professor of Anatomy there, was investigating the valves of the veins. He demonstrated their presence in the veins of the arms and legs and also in the vessels at the root of the neck. These sluice-gates are very simple contrivances — ^just little pockets set in pairs opposite each other in the vein. 'Fabricius noted that the openings of the pockets were always directed toward the central part of the body. He interpreted this as indicating a mechanism to prevent the blood VALVES OF HEART 289 from gathering, under the influence of gravity, in the lower parts of the body.
