"On Digestive Proteolysis" by R. H. Chittenden is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. This work presents the Cartwright Lectures delivered in 1894 and focuses on the complex processes of digestion, particularly the transformation of proteid food-stuffs into soluble products by digestive enzymes. The book is aimed at advancing understanding in both physiology and medicine regarding digestion and the utilization of proteins. The opening of the book highlights the significant progress in understanding digestive proteolysis through the collaboration of chemistry and physiology. R. H. Chittenden sets the stage by discussing the fundamental importance of digestion in the body and the complexities of the processes involved. He emphasizes the need for accurate chemical methods to decipher the nature of proteolytic enzymes and the chemical changes they induce during digestion. Chittenden alludes to historical developments in the study of gastric and pancreatic digestion, pointing out that earlier researchers laid the groundwork for a more nuanced understanding of how these enzymes function in the breakdown of complex proteins.
