Kirke's Handbook of Physiology, Vol. 1: Hand-Book of Physiology (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Kirke's Handbook of Physiology, Vol. 1: Hand-Book of Physiology

A large number of new illustrations have been added, for many of which we are indebted to the courtesy of Dr. Klein, Professor Michael Foster, Professor Schaefer, Dr. Mahomed, Mr. Gant, and Messrs. Mcmillan, who have been so good as to allow various figures to be copied. Our thanks are also due to Mr. Wm. Lapraik, who has kindly prepared a table of the absorption spectra of the blood and bile, based upon his own Observations; as well as to Mr. S. K. Alcock for several careful drawings of microscopical prepara tions, and for reading several sheets in their passage through the press.
