Excerpt from Experimental Pharmacology: A Laboratory Guide for the Study of the Physiological Action of Drugs The instruction In Pharmacology in the University Of Missouri from the date of its establishment in the fall of 1900 has been based on a rigid course of required laboratory experiments. The student in Pharmacology no less than in Physiology should be given every Opportunity to Observe for himself the changes produced by a drug in the activities of a tissue, of an organ, and in the entire organism. It is Only on such intimate personal experience with the facts that one can base a rational discussion Of the principles of Pharmacology. The directions presented here have been formulated during the growth of the course as presented in this University and are now printed for the first time. Valuable aid and suggestion have been rendered by my coworkers, Dr. Waldemar Koch, and Mr. Om'ar Ray Gullion, now of Cornell University.
