Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book, first published in 1867 and subsequently updated, explores the relationship between snake venom and the blood of mammals, building on the author's previous research on snake venom's effects. The author presents evidence that snake venom primarily targets the blood, with secondary effects on the nervous system, challenging the prevailing view that venom solely affects the nervous system. The author also discusses the role of blood changes in snakebite fatalities, and proposes a mechanism for these changes. This book is a valuable contribution to the scientific understanding of snake venom's effects on the body, providing insights that continue to inform research and medical practice in the field of snakebite treatment.
