Essays on the History of Respiratory Physiology
[electronic resource] /by John B. West. - 1st ed. 2015. - XIV, 342 p. 129 illus., 14 illus. in color.online resource. - Perspectives in Physiology,2625-2813. - Perspectives in Physiology,.
Galen and the beginnings of Western physiology -- Ibn al-Nafis, the pulmonary circulation, and the Islamic Golden Age -- Torricelli and the ocean of air: the first measurement of barometric pressure -- Robert Boyle’s landmark book of 1660 with the first experiments on rarified air -- The original presentation of Boyle's Law -- Robert Hooke: Early respiratory physiologist, polymath, and mechanical genius -- Marcello Malpighi and the discovery of the pulmonary capillaries and alveoli -- Stephen Hales: neglected respiratory physiologist -- Joseph Black, carbon dioxide, latent heat, and the beginnings of the discovery of the respiratory gases -- Carl Wilhelm Scheele, the discoverer of oxygen, and a very productive chemist -- Joseph Priestley, oxygen, and the Enlightenment -- The collaboration of Antoine and Marie-Anne Lavoisier and the first measurements of human oxygen consumption -- Henry Cavendish, hydrogen, water, and the weight of the earth -- Humphry Davy, nitrous oxide, the Pneumatic Institution, and the Royal Institution -- Denis Jourdanet (1815-1892) and the early recognition of the role of hypoxia at high altitude -- Centenary of the Anglo-American High Altitude Expedition to Pikes Peak -- Alexander M. Kellas and the physiological challenge of Mount Everest -- Ravenhill and his contributions to mountain sickness -- George I. Finch and his pioneering use of oxygen for climbing at extreme altitudes -- Joseph Barcroft's studies of high altitude physiology -- The physiological legacy of the Fenn, Rahn and Otis school -- The physiological challenges of the 1952 Copenhagen poliomyelitis epidemic and a renaissance in clinical respiratory physiology -- Historical aspects of the early Soviet/Russian manned space program. .
This book consists of 23 essays about prominent people and events in the history of respiratory physiology. It provides a first-hand chronicle of the advancements made in respiratory physiology starting with Galen and the beginnings of Western physiology. The volume covers many aspects of the evolution of this important area of knowledge: pulmonary circulation, Boyle’s Law, pulmonary capillaries and alveoli, morphology, gas exchange and blood flow, mechanics, control of ventilation, and comparative physiology. The book emphasizes societal and philosophical aspects of the history of science. Although it concentrates on physiology, it also describes how cultural movements, such as The Enlightenment, shaped the researchers discussed.
