Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Metabolism and Practical Medicine, Vol. 1 In this English edition I wish to add a few words to the preface written for the German original. I congratulate myself heartily that my publishers decided to issue an English translation of my text-book immediately after the German edition had appeared. It was a bold stroke on their part to do so before the commercial success of the German volume was definitely assured. Yet I believe that their courage will be rewarded, and for this reason: a few decades ago the scientific examination of the processes of metabolism was almost confined to investigators of the German, French, and Italian nations; but in the last twenty years a number of English and American men of science have turned their attention to this branch of scientific medicine, and we have to thank their careful labours for a number of admirable publications that have added much to our knowledge. Among these I may mention the names of Halliburton, Hopkins, Vaughan Harley, Starling, Milroy, Leathes, and Walker Hall in England, and of Atwater, Benedict, Chittenden, Folin, Herter, Mendel, and G. Lusk in America. It is, indeed, my conviction that the rising generation of English and American medical men regards the problems of metabolism with an interest that grows from year to year, and that these men will eagerly welcome this book as a trustworthy guide and a stimulating source of information. It gives me particular pleasure to state that my friend Professor I. Walker Hall has undertaken the laborious task of editing this English edition of my work, published in London by Mr. William Heinemann, and in Chicago by Messrs. W. T. Keener and Co. No person better fitted for this difficult duty could have been found, as I knew when I commended him for the purpose to my publishers. I believe that my English-speaking colleagues will agree with me when I say that Professor Walker Hall has acquitted himself brilliantly, and I herewith convey to him my most heartfelt good wishes and thanks. Close relations have existed for many a long year between the learned men of Germany and of England. May this book succeed in drawing those relations yet closer!
