Mann, G: Physiological Histology -

Résumé :
Excerpt from Physiological Histology: Methods and Theory

Scientific endeavours to answer these and similar questions can only be made after a thorough realization of the difficulties which beset our inquiries at every step. We cannot in every case examine cells in their living condition, and if we could, and did thus restrict our investigations, we should not learn more anatomy and physiology than he who simply watches an animal move and feed.

Without in any way desiring to diminish the importance of investigating the living organism, it is necessary for purposes of biological research to kill, and to do this in such a manner as to preserve as far as possible the physical and the chemical state existing during life.
