The Functional Inertia of Living Matter: A Contribution to the Physiological Theory of Life is a book written by David Fraser Harris in 1908. The book explores the concept of functional inertia in living matter, which refers to the tendency of living organisms to maintain their current state of functioning, even in the face of external stimuli or changes in their environment. Harris argues that this concept is essential to understanding the underlying mechanisms of life and the processes that govern the behavior of living organisms. The book delves into various aspects of living matter, including metabolism, growth, reproduction, and adaptation, and provides a detailed analysis of the physiological processes that underlie these phenomena. The author also discusses the role of functional inertia in disease and aging, and provides insights into how this concept can be applied to the development of new treatments and therapies. Overall, The Functional Inertia of Living Matter is a seminal work in the field of physiology and provides a comprehensive and detailed exploration of the fundamental mechanisms of life.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
