This volume records the edited proceedings of an inter-national conference on blood flow through organs andtissues held in Glasgow in March 1967. There are a totalof fifty-eight papers representing eighty-nine participants andof particular interest are the full discussions which arereported, thanks to the generous use of the tape recorderduring the conference. The papers are grouped into sectionsdealing with techniques of measuring blood flow throughvessels and then with flow through specific organs-heart,lung, brain, muscle, skin, kidney and other viscera. Thepapers include contributions from the U.S.A., Canada,Denmark, Italy, Belgium and Germany as well as from theseislands and represent many disciplines among which arephysiology, engineering, surgery, cardiology and anaesthesia.The wide range of specialists drawn together in this conference
indicates the increasing interest in the subject of blood flowthroughout the various fields of medicine.The communications are highly technical and reflect the
considerable advances which moder techniques of radio-active clearance, dye dilution, strain gauges and electro-magnetic flow meters have made to the study of blood flowin various tissues in health and disease. Full bibliographies aregiven.
This volume will obviously prove to be a valuable referencework to the many workers in this important and rapidlyevolving field of applied physiology.Nutrition in Renal Disease
