""The Peritoneum, Part 1: Histology and Physiology"" is a scientific book written by Byron Robinson in 1899. The book focuses on the peritoneum, which is the membrane that lines the abdominal cavity and covers the organs within it. The author provides a detailed description of the structure and function of the peritoneum, including its histology (the study of the microscopic structure of tissues) and physiology (the study of the functions of living organisms and their parts).

The author also discusses the role of the peritoneum in various pathological conditions, such as inflammation, infection, and cancer.
