VENOMS
VENOMOUS ANIMALS
AND ANTIVENOMOUS
SERUM- THERAPEUTICS

Antivenomous serum- therapy, which my studies, supplemented by those of
Phisalix and Bertrand, Fraser, George Lamb, F. Tidswell, McFarland, and Vital
Brazil, have enabled me to establish upon scientific bases, has now entered
into current medical practice. In each of the countries in which venomous bites
represent an important cause of mortality in the case of human beings and
domestic animals, special laboratories have been officially organised for the
preparation of antivenomous serum. All that remains to be done is to teach its
use to those who are ignorant of it, especially to the indigenous inhabitants of
tropical countries, where snakes are more especially formidable and deadly.
This book will not reach such people as these, but the medical men, naturalists,
travellers, and explorers to whom it is addressed will know how to popularise
and apply the information that it will give them. vii
I firmly believe also that physiologists will read the book with profit. Its perusal
will perhaps suggest to them the task of investigating a host of questions,
which are still obscure, relating to toxins, their mode of action upon the
different organisms, and their relations to the antitoxins. There is no doubt that
in the study of venoms a multitude of workers will, for a long time to come, find
material for the exercise of their powers of research.
At the moment of completing this work I would like to be allowed to cast a
backward glance upon the stage that it marks in my scientific career, and to
express my heartfelt gratitude to my very dear master and friend, Dr. ?mile
Roux, to whom I owe the extreme gratification of having been able to dedicate
my life to the study of experimental science, and of having caused to germinate,
grow, and ripen a few of the ever fertile seeds that he sows broadcast around
him.
I have experienced at the hands of a large number of our ministers, consuls, or
consular agents abroad the most cordial reception on repeatedly addressing
myself to them in order to obtain the papers or information of which I was in
need. It is only right for me to thank them for it, and to acknowledge the trouble
that M. Masson has most kindly taken in publishing this book.
