Excerpt from On Means for the Prolongation of Life IN publishing an enlarged edition of Means for the Prolongation of Life, I have acted on some suggestions made to me by readers of the former editions. Thus I have added a short description of most of the more common articles of food, their digestibility and their ro'le in the nutrition of the body. I have also divided the contents of the little treatise into a number of sections for easier reference; but I have other wise left the arrangements and the greater part of the text as in the original lecture. I have also endeavoured to make the Biblio graphy and the Index rather more complete. Since the delivery of this lecture in 1903, several excellent communications on the same subject have appeared, by Sir Lauder Brunton, Professor Metchnikoff, Dr. William Ewart, M. Jean Finot, and others, from which I have derived much useful information. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
