"Venoms: Venomous Animals and Antivenomous Serum-therapeutics" by A. Calmette is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book explores the intricate world of venomous animals, particularly snakes, and discusses the medical implications and therapeutic advancements related to antivenom. Calmette's research serves as a valuable resource for medical professionals and naturalists interested in the properties of venoms and the treatment of snake bites. At the start of the text, Calmette introduces the concept of venomous animals, highlighting their biochemical significance and the impact of venom on human health. He recounts an incident involving a cobra invasion in Cochin-China, which ignited his fascination with the study of venoms. The opening also establishes the historical context of venom research and emphasizes the importance of understanding the physiology of venom for the development of antivenom therapies. Calmette's dedication to this scientific inquiry is evident as he reflects on previous studies and articulates his aim to compile a comprehensive monograph that addresses both the biology of venomous species and their medical relevance.
