Description
Washington DC: Carnegie Institute of Washington, 1907. Publication no. 77. Ex-library, stamps on the title page. v, 542pp. Brown cloth with typed paper spine label. Very good copy. Francis Gano Benedict (1870-1957) was an American chemist, physiologist, and nutritionist. He developed a calorimeter and spirometer used to determine oxygen consumption and measure metabolic rate. Born in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, Benedict attended Harvard University, earning his bachelor's degree in 1893 and his master's degree in 1894. He earned his Ph.D., magna cum laude, at Heidelberg University in 1895. He taught at Wesleyan University and did work for the U.S. Department of Agriculture. The Influence of Inanition on Metabolism (1907) is a report of subjects studied during short fasting periods in the chemical laboratory of Wesleyan University, Middletown, Connecticut. William Welch and John Shaw Billings were impressed with Benedict's early publications on animal heat and metabolism, and they conviced the Carnegie Foundation trustees to establish a nutrition laboratory under Benedict's direction. The result was the Boston Nutrition Laboratory, where Benedict remained until his retirement (1907-1937). (DSB 1.610/1). Garrison-morton.com Entry #1027.
