Original gilt-stamped cloth one corner bumped. Light toning but very good. Presentation Copy inscribed by Cannon to Sir Cuthbert Wallace 1867-1944 on slip tipped to front pastedown: "To Sir Cuthbert Wallace with gratitude for your kindness and encouragement during our work in old Béthune. Walter B. Cannon."</p> <p>First Edition. Cannon professor and chair of the Department of Physiology at Harvard Medical School was one of the pre-eminent physiologists of the 20th century making fundamental contributions to our knowledge of digestion the autonomic nervous system homeostasis and stress response. "In the fall of 1916 before the United States entered World War I the National Research Council named Cannon a member of a committee on traumatic shock. Later he joined the Harvard University Hospital Unit. On his way to France in May 1917 he stopped in London and arranged with Fletcher first secretary of the Medical Research Committee to join the group of physicians and surgeons of the British Expeditionary Forces who were dealing with shock cases at the Casualty Clearing Station at Béthune. . . . Initially Cannon and his associates in the field concentrated their therapeutic efforts on treating the acidosis that accompanies shock. Later they recognized that the acidosis was merely a secondary phenomenon the result of the inadequacy of tissue perfusion. In 1923 Cannon summarized his wartime experience in Traumatic Shock" Dictionary of Scientific Biography.</p> <p> Cannon presented this copy of Traumatic Shock to his commanding officer at Béthune Colonel Cuthbert Sidney Wallace consulting surgeon to the First Army British Expeditionary Force. Cannon noted in his preface that "We were serving under Colonel Cuthbert Wallace later Major-General Sir Cuthbert Wallace who was as eager as any of us to secure further knowledge of shock and who helped and encouraged us in our efforts" p. ix. </p> .

1915140943594New York: D. Appleton and Company 1915. First Edition. First edition. Signed by Walter Cannon on the front free endpaper "With cordial regards." xiii 311 pp. Bound in publisher's crimson cloth with gilt spine lettering. Very Good with darkened spine lettering worn tips diagonal crease to ffep lacking dust jacket. Quite rare signed.<br /> <p>The author was an American physiologist who riginated the concept of homeostasis. This particular work introduced the world to the "fight or flight response." According to an article on him in BrainImmune an online neuroendocrine immunology review "He asserted that not only physical emergencies such as blood loss from trauma but also psychological emergencies such as antagonistic encounters between members of the same species evoke release of adrenaline into the bloodstream. To Cannon the body"s responses to 'fight' are the same as those to 'flight.' Adrenaline exerts several important effects in different body organs all of which from Cannon"s point of view maintain homeostasis in fight-or-flight situations. In the skeletal muscle of the limbs adrenaline relaxes blood vessels increasing local blood flow."<p> Garrison Morton 1200. D. Appleton and Company unknown
