To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This task, however, is beyond our powers at present and is indeed a vastly difficult task, since each organ has a dif- ferent metabolism and must be studied by itself. We know scarcely anything, for example, about the chemical composition of many of these organs and particularly little about the master tissue of the body, the nervous system, so that we cannot proceed directly to each organ and describe just what chemical changes occur in it. We must of necessity take a roundabout course and fol...low the path which the science has actually followed in its development. Having followed the foods into the blood, the internal medium of the body, we turn to see in what form the various substances, nitrogen, carbon, hydrogen and oxygen, leave the body ; and by working backward from the excretions gradually narrow down the problem to the metabolism of the various organs. We shall turn now to study the composition of he various excretions of the body. 681 Digitized by Google 682 PHYSIOLOGICAL CHEMISTRY These excretions are those of the kidneys, the skin, the lungs and the alimentary canal.
