Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Protoplasm Theory: An Introductory Lecture Delivered at the Opening of the Winter Session of the College of Physicians and Surgeons, New York, October, 1, 1873 With respect, finally, to the methods by which protoplasm performs the fundamental vital acts, I need not recapitulate what has been so often described already. I will only in this connection point out to you the important fact that so far as observation has yet gone - mark the proviso-protoplasm has never been definitely known to arise de novo, but is always found derived from pre-existing protoplasm by bodily division of one unit-mass into new individuals or germs. Such, then, are the pregnant facts that the microscope has re vealed, and I leave you to judge whether I was justified in say ing at' the beginning of the lecture that a common denominator of life had been found. You have seen that throughout the vast domain of the animate world, from man to the monera, there is but one kind of actively living matter - protoplasm but one mode of its existence, in elementary unit-masses: but one scheme of tissue-building, the multiplication and transformation of such elements: and apparently but one mode of continuance of life on earth, direct division of protoplasm-units into new genera tions of the same.

Book excerpt: For a century, anyone with sympathies towards materialism and reductionism in biology could say that most important stuff in a living organism was [protoplasm], often referred to as "living matter" and the "physical basis of life." By examining the confluence of biology's material and visual cultures of the cell, this dissertation seeks to open the "black box" of the physico-chemical, materialist conception of life as protoplasm. The dissertation argues that the material and ontological foundations of biology changed twice during the century of protoplasm, from the 1840s to the 1930s. The first major change began in 1899, when protoplasm became defined as a colloid - a heterogeneous aggregate whose structure and behavior came from a delicate balance of thermodynamic interactions of their material phases, rather than an assembly of individual molecules. Through colloid chemistry biologists became suspicious of arguments about definite molecular structures in the soft, vital parts of living organisms - and not just because of colloid chemistry's associations with nominalist, energy-centric physics. By the end of the nineteenth century, many biologists had become skeptical of the chemical fixation techniques needed to see sub-cellular structures, and ordinary light microscopes had reached the limits of their theoretical resolving power. The second major change to protoplasm theory came to a head in the 1930s, as biologists sought to use indirect techniques to overcome microscopy's resolution limits, and to visually disaggregate colloids into their component parts. Crucially, these techniques required extensive use of diagrams and schematic illustrations to make visible a "biological microworld" of the molecular "ultrastructure" of cells, both in the imagination and on paper. The second half of the dissertation examines three pioneers in cell ultrastructure research, and their use of polarized light microscopy to create this biological microworld: Herman Ambronn, Albert Frey-Wyssling, and Wilhelm J. Schmidt. By investigating how biologists developed their own theories of living matter, this dissertation shows that they engaged with physics and physical chemistry decades before the post-war biophysics boom, and offers a new history of how biologists began to imagine and explore life at the molecular level.
