Summary "Ameboid Movement" by Asa A. Schaeffer is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The book primarily explores the topic of ameboid movement, particularly focusing on the physiological and physiological reactions associated with amoebas and similar organisms. It discusses the relevance of ameboid movement to various fields like medicine, psychology, biology, and evolution. The opening of the text introduces the concept of ameboid movement, explaining its significance in biological studies as it relates to the movement of white blood cells, which share characteristics with amoebas. Schaeffer outlines the book's dual objectives: to detail the mechanics and features of ameboid movement and to present a thesis that organisms lacking functional orienting organs tend to exhibit orderly, predictable movement paths. The author emphasizes that this work is based on direct observations and experiments, aiming to bring a practical scientific approach to a largely theoretical topic.
