Einführung in die Physiologie der Einzelligen (Protozoen)

Abstract

THIS work differs from all other treatises on the growing subject of protozoology in being largely devoted to the problems of function. It is a condensed account of our present knowledge of this highly important and difficult subject, and consists of summaries of physiological results, often too short to be easily intelligible, but of considerable value to that increasing number of investigators who are interested in recent advances in this field. The author is a well-known and active worker, and does not hesitate to press certain views which have not as yet obtained complete adherence. On the whole, however, he gives an impartial view of the state of each problem so far as the kaleidoscopic nature of the case allows.
