Book excerpt: "The Organism as a Whole, from a Physicochemical Viewpoint" by Jacques Loeb Jacques Loeb was a German-born American physiologist and biologist, and his career gave him the experience necessary to attempt to tackle life and biology from a more chemical point of view. In this book, he refutes claims that chemistry and physics are far-removed from biology and that these sciences work entirely independently of each other.
