Description:
Discover how alcohol affects the body and how it has been used in medicine and industry.
Alcohol is examined for its real effects on the body, including how it influences blood flow, temperature, and sensation. The discussion includes cautionary notes about when alcohol can be dangerous and when it may aid recovery after cold exposure or fever.
This edition also surveys practical uses of alcohol as an antiseptic and solvent, its role in medical preparations, and how strength and purity affect its action. It provides historical context, including how hospital practices and spending on alcoholic stimulants have changed over time, and it covers the science behind methyl alcohol and related compounds.
- How alcohol lowers peripheral temperature and alters heat loss versus heat production.
- Antiseptic, solvent, and counter-irritant uses in medical and cosmetic preparations.
- Methods and notes on identifying and estimating methyl alcohol in mixtures.
- Historical and practical perspectives on medical use, dosage, and hospital practice.
Ideal for readers interested in medical physiology, historical medical practice, and the industrial uses of alcohol.
