Garden City: American Museum of Natural History. Very Good. 1968. Soft Cover. 178 pages, illustrations, diagrams, wrappers, very good. Pocketbook paperback. From the rear cover: The only thriving wildlife still barely touched by man is the hot, confusing, and poorly lit world within himself. The strangely shaped glands and bones, the transparent lungs, the dense tangle of cells in the brain hold worlds within worlds; and through it all, streams of blood. Leo Vroman drew his first sample of blood shortly after World War II and, during the past twenty years, he has made the study of blood both his vocation and his avocation. The mechanisms of coagulation have been of particular fascination to Dr. Vroman, and it is the story of his research on the prothrombin complex that introduces the reader of this volume to all aspects of human blood - its development, structure and function. Based on up-to-date biochemical research, this is a thorough and entertaining account of one of man's most alarming treasures. . more information
