action" for surface-active drugs. Chapters 1-7 contains an account of the hypothesis and chapter 8 contains a general account of the
application of surface activity in therapeutics. The methodology and presentation of the information makes
Surface Activity in
Drug Action valuable reading for students and researchers interested in surface activity.
