Bodily Changes in Pain, Hunger, Fear and Rage

This book, published in 1915, is a compilation of research by Walter Bradford Cannon and his associates at the Harvard Physiological Laboratory.

It explores the bodily changes associated with emotional excitement, including the 'fight or flight response', and discusses how these responses are mediated by the sympathico-adrenal system.

The work is significant for its contribution to the understanding of physiological responses to emotional states and its impact on the field of physiology.
