First published in 1901 as the second edition of an original from 1899, this book examines the relations between fermentation and the general metabolic phenomena of living organisms. The book reviews then-current research into the role of enzymes in fermentation as well as in other chemical reactions such as jelly-formation and the digestion of fat. This book will be of value to anyone with an interest in the history of science.
