Excerpt from The Transmutation of Bacteria
This essay is based upon notes and observations which I collected previous to the year 1913. It was only partly written when, in August 1914, I proceeded on active service. I was able, however, to complete it in the following summer while serving with a Field Ambulance in France, and in the autumn of the same year (1915) I submitted it in the form of a Dissertation for the degree of M.D. at the University of Cambridge.
The difficulties in carrying out work of this character while serving at the Front - remote from libraries and amidst "alarms and excursions" which break up ones scanty leisure - are sufficiently obvious and I trust may excuse some of its defects. Some valuable materials which I had hoped to utilise, including chapters on Viability and Agglutination Reactions, were buried by a shell explosion and could not be replaced.
The claims of Army work have also precluded any attempt on ray part to bring the work up to date by reference to papers published since the beginning of the war. I particularly regret having learnt too late to include any mention of it in the following pages of the valuable research carried out by Dr Thiele and Dr Embleton on the part played by the body ferments in the pathogenicity of bacteria.
Though I have endeavoured to suppress all irrelevant matter, I am only too conscious of the discursiveness of this essay. The topic is one of absorbing interest and at every step one is tempted to digress. In the words of Dante, which I have quoted on the title page, "The novelty must be my excuse if my pen has wandered at all."

Paperback. Condición: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the intriguing world of bacterial transmutation, exploring the potential for bacteria to change their characteristics under various conditions. The author, an experienced scientist, examines the historical context of bacterial evolution and the role of natural selection in shaping bacterial traits. Throughout the book, the author presents compelling evidence and case studies to support the idea that bacteria can undergo significant transformations, adapting to their environment and even mimicking other species. The author also discusses the implications of bacterial transmutation for our understanding of disease and the development of new treatments. Ultimately, this book challenges traditional notions of bacterial immutability and sheds light on the remarkable adaptability and resilience of these microscopic organisms. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
