The Organism As A Whole: From A Physicochemical Viewpoint is a scientific book written by Jacques Loeb in 1916. The book explores the nature of living organisms from a physicochemical perspective. It discusses the fundamental principles of biology and chemistry that govern the behavior of living organisms. The author argues that living organisms are not fundamentally different from inanimate matter, but rather, they are governed by the same physical and chemical laws. He presents evidence to support this claim, including experiments on the behavior of cells, tissues, and organs.The book covers a range of topics, including the structure and function of cells, the role of enzymes in metabolism, the nature of hormones and other signaling molecules, and the mechanisms of movement and sensation. It also discusses the relationship between the organism and its environment, including the role of external stimuli in shaping behavior.Overall, The Organism As A Whole provides a comprehensive and groundbreaking perspective on the nature of life and the principles that govern it. It is a must-read for anyone interested in the intersection of biology and chemistry, and the fundamental nature of living systems.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
