"Irritability: A Physiological Analysis of the General Effect of Stimuli" by Max Verworn is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The text appears to focus on the concept of irritability as it pertains to living substances, exploring how different stimuli can affect physiological reactions and the laws governing these responses. The author discusses the historical perspectives on irritability and aims to unite experiments conducted over decades to form a systematic understanding of this fundamental physiological concept. The opening of the work introduces the reader to the historical context surrounding the study of irritability, outlining significant thinkers such as Francis Glisson and Albrecht von Haller, and their contributions to the understanding of living substances' responses to stimuli. Verworn sets the stage for a comprehensive exploration by discussing the philosophical and scientific evolutions that have shaped the field. He emphasizes the importance of studying irritability as a gateway to better understanding life's processes. The author also signals his intention to methodically investigate the effects of stimulation across various biological systems, laying a foundation for the detailed analysis that will follow in the subsequent chapters.
