The Physiological Action of Drugs: An Introduction to Practical Pharmacology is a book written by Marcus Seymour Pembrey in 1901. The book is an introduction to the field of pharmacology, which is the study of drugs and their effects on the body. Pembrey explores the physiological action of drugs, which refers to how drugs affect the body's functions and processes. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the principles of pharmacology, including the classification of drugs, their modes of action, and their therapeutic uses. Pembrey also discusses the various methods used to study the effects of drugs on the body, such as animal experimentation and clinical trials. The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a specific aspect of pharmacology. The first chapter provides an overview of the history of pharmacology and the development of modern drug therapies. Subsequent chapters cover topics such as drug absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination, as well as the effects of drugs on the nervous, cardiovascular, respiratory, and digestive systems. Throughout the book, Pembrey emphasizes the importance of understanding the physiological action of drugs in order to use them safely and effectively. He also discusses the ethical considerations involved in drug research and development, such as the use of animals in experimentation and the potential risks and benefits of new drug therapies. Overall, The Physiological Action of Drugs: An Introduction to Practical Pharmacology is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the field of pharmacology, including students, researchers, and healthcare professionals. The book provides a thorough and accessible introduction to the principles of pharmacology, as well as insights into the challenges and opportunities of this important field of study.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
