Comparative Physiology of the Heart

Taschenbuch. Condición: Neu. Neuware - 'Comparative Physiology of the Heart' is a foundational scientific treatise that explores the intricate mechanisms and evolutionary development of the cardiac system across a broad spectrum of the animal kingdom. Written by A.J. Clark, this work provides a rigorous analysis of the functional differences and similarities in heart performance, rhythmicity, and metabolism, offering a comprehensive overview of how cardiac output adapts to the specific physiological requirements of diverse organisms.From the elementary pulsations found in invertebrates to the highly specialized circulatory systems of mammals, the text examines the physiological laws governing heart size, rate, and overall efficiency. Clark's methodical approach synthesizes data to explain how the heart's structural evolution mirrors the metabolic demands of different species. This volume remains a significant reference for those interested in zoology, cardiology, and comparative biology, providing deep insights into the fundamental principles of cardiovascular mechanics.By evaluating the heart through a comparative lens, the work sheds light on the biological diversity and evolutionary ingenuity that have shaped one of nature's most vital organs. It is an essential resource for understanding the historical progression of physiological science and the enduring questions of cardiac function.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
