Animal Chemistry: Or Chemistry in Its Application to Physiology and Pathology (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Animal Chemistry: Or Chemistry in Its Application to Physiology and Pathology

All existing experience and observation in other departments of science reacted, in like manner, on the improvement and development of chemistry; so that chemistry received from metallurgy and form other industrial arts as much benefit as she had conferred on them. While they simultaneously increased in wealth, they mutually contributed to the development of each other.

After mineral chemistry had gradually attained its present state of development, the labors of chemists took a new direction. From the study of the constituent parts of vegetables and animals, new and altered views have arisen; and the present work is an attempt to apply these views to physio-v logy and pathology.
