This volume originates from a symposium held in Copenhagen in June 1989 to commemorate Kjell Johansen, who died March 4, 1987. The volume begins with a nonscientific but fascinating glimpse at Kjell, followed by an overview of the kinds of physiology that interested him, i.e. adaptational, environmental, and ecological physiology. The following 20 chapters are organized into five sections: metabolism; gas exchange; circulation--environmental, ontogeny, and exercise; blood gas transport; and circulation--comparative studies.
