Roger Charles Louis Guillemin was a French-American neuroscientist who received the National Medal of Science in 1976, and the Nobel Prize for Medicine in 1977 for his work on neurohormones. A near fine copy - clean, bright and unmarked - in a slightly soiled and moderately edge-chipped dust jacket which is nicely preserved and displayed in a clear archival Brodart sleeve. ~SP42~ [3.0P] This work is Bernard's basic statement of the philosophy, the problems, and the future of general physiology. First given as lectures in 1872 and 1873, it mirrors Bernard's turn from the experimental physiology of animal organisms to a 'general physiology' of elementary organisms, or cells, and discuss the problematic interrelation of science, life, and time. Born in France, in 1813, Claude Bernard was the founder of modern experimental physiology. At Lyon, he studied to become a playwright, but critics' rejection of his works ended his dramatic aspirations. After serving for several years as a pharmacist's assistant, he became a physician and an exceptionally astute biological scientist. Bernard's investigations in physiology were fruitful and broad in scope. In 1855 he was appointed full professor of medicine at the College de France. By that time he had already explained the chemical and nervous system control of digestion, demonstrated the role of the pancreas in fat metabolism, and discovered the role that bile plays in the digestion of proteins. In the years that followed, he identified the liver as the site of glycogenesis and explained the processes governing vasodilation. Bernard's most important theoretical contribution was proposing the concept of homeostasis, which he called the milieu interieur. Homeostasis is the principle that all of the body's systems are in a constant state of adjustment and that these adjustments maintain equilibrium within the body. Bernard was the first physiologist to demonstrate that the theories and methods of chemistry and physics could contribute to the study of biology. This first use of interdisciplinary techniques broadened the base of physiology and foreshadowed the form that future research in biology would take. Bernard died in 1878. About the former owners (and co-translators): From the library of Roger Guillemin (1924-2024) and Lucienne Guillemin (1921-2021). Roger was a French-American neuroscientist who joined the Salk Institute in 1970 at the invitation of Jonas Salk. In separate research laboratories, Guillemin and neuroscientist Andrew Schally (1926-2024) discovered the structures of Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) and Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). They were jointly awarded the 1977 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for this discovery. In addition, Roger Guillemin received awards from the National Academy of Sciences, 1974; the Canada Gairdner International Award, 1974; the Albert Lasker Award for Basic Medical Research, 1975; the Dickson Prize in Medicine, 1976; the Passano Award in Medical Sciences, 1976; the National Medal of Science, 1976; and from the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, 1977. Co-translator Lucienne Guillemin, born in Paris, emigrated to Montreal, Canada, where she met Roger, her patient and future husband, at Hopital Notre-Dame. She was a linguist (in addition to fluency in English and French, she studied Chinese and Spanish) and musician, and became an accomplished pastel artist.
