This book explores the importance of bodily fluids to the development of medical knowledge in the eighteenth century. While the historiography has focused on the role of anatomy, this study shows that the chemical analyses of bodily fluids in the Dutch Republic radically altered perceptions of the body, propelling forwards a new system of medicine. It examines the new research methods and scientific instruments available at the turn of the eighteenth century that allowed for these developments, taken forward by Herman Boerhaave and his students. Each chapter focuses on a different bodily fluid – saliva, blood, urine, milk, sweat, semen – to investigate how doctors gained new insights into physiological processes through chemical experimentation on these bodily fluids. The book reveals how physicians moved from a humoral theory of medicine to new chemical and mechanical models for understanding the body in the early modern period. In doing so, it uncovers the lives and works of an important group of scientists which grew to become a European-wide community of physicians and chemists.

This original six chapter book will briefly review and integrate the basic concepts behind water distribution and movement in the body. This fills a knowledge gap that most medical and undergraduate physiology students acquire when these topics are studied separately. As of now, there is no textbook that fully integrates renal, cardiovascular and water physiology in a clear understandable manner. The book is intended primarily for medical students and undergraduate physiology students. Chapters include: 1) Water and its Distribution; 2) Water Dynamics; 3) Fluid Handling by the Heart and Blo

"Biofluid mechanics embraces the flow of life. It is intimate and personal and situates at the intersection of engineering, physics, mathematics and biology. The author has dual expertise in fluid mechanics and medicine, and shares this unique perspective for the book's two major goals: (1) provide the student with an understanding of fundamental fluid mechanics and (2) put that understanding into a biological context. The level of the book is aimed at the advanced undergraduate and graduate student. So for most it would be a second course in fluid mechanics, though a novice with strong mathematical experience can benefit as well. The content is derived from class notes developed over many years of teaching the subject at Northwestern University and the University of Michigan. Students from many backgrounds have been taught from these notes, including engineering, mathematics, physics and medicine. With 650 references, the book can also serve as a general reference for biofluid mechanics" [Publisher]
