The Physiological Effects Of Air Vitiated By Respiration (1892)

The Physiological Effects of Air Vitiated by Respiration is a scientific book written by John Scott Haldane in 1892. The book explores the effects of breathing in air that has been contaminated by the respiratory process. Haldane, who was a renowned physiologist and medical researcher, conducted a series of experiments to investigate the impact of carbon dioxide, water vapor, and other gases on the human body. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a specific aspect of the topic. Haldane discusses the chemical composition of air and the role of respiration in altering its composition. He also examines the effects of carbon dioxide on the respiratory and circulatory systems, as well as the impact of high humidity on human performance. Throughout the book, Haldane presents his findings in a clear and concise manner, using detailed scientific language and referencing other studies to support his conclusions. He also includes numerous tables and graphs to illustrate his data. The Physiological Effects of Air Vitiated by Respiration is considered a landmark work in the field of respiratory physiology and has been cited in countless subsequent studies. It remains a valuable resource for researchers, medical professionals, and anyone interested in the science of breathing and its impact on human health.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
