Abstract
IN his exacting task of elucidating the nature of living processes, the physiologist wisely draws on his colleagues in other branches of science for all the help they can give him. With the aid of the organic chemist, for example, he has already learnt how to isolate, analyse, and synthesise such fundamentally important substances as adrenaline and thyroxine: every day he likewise applies the technique and theories of the organic chemist to further his knowledge of that marvellous sequence of co-ordinated chemical reactions which constjtutes metabolism.
