About this title

Synopsis

Explore how respiration works in the rabbit, from diaphragm movement to the nerve centers that guide breathing.

This edition presents Max Marckwald's classic work, The Movements of Respiration: And Their Innervation in the Rabbit, with a Supplement on the Relation of Respiration to Deglutition, and on the Question of the Existence of Respiratory Centres in the Spinal Cord, translated for English readers with added notes and appendices. The book blends careful experimentation with clear explanations of how breathing is controlled by the diaphragm, the phrenic nerves, and central nervous system pathways.

Readers will gain access to frames of reference that connect mechanical breathing with neural control. The text traces historic debates, outlines key experiments, and shows how different nerves influence when and how we breathe. It also compares breathing in normal and altered conditions, including reflexes tied to swallowing and the role of the spinal cord in respiration.

Diaphragm movement and the phrenic nerves as the basis for simple respiration.
Spinal cord tracts and medullary centers that coordinate breathing.
Effects of nerves such as the vagus, glossopharyngeal, and superior laryngeal on inspiration and expiration.
The interplay between respiration and deglutition, plus discussion of whether spinal centers exist for breathing.

Ideal for readers interested in physiology, neuroscience history, and the experimental methods used to study breathing.
