What reading level is Kirkes Handbook of Physiology book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
CHAPTER XII.
ANIMAL HEAT.
Heat is produced by the metabolism of the tissues of the body. In man and in such animals as are called warm-blooded, i.e., only mammals and birds, there is an average body temperature which is maintained with only slight variations in spite of changes in their environment. The possible variations above and below this average are comparatively slight. The average temperature in all mammals and birds is not the same, for, as we shall see, the average temperature of man ...is 37° C. (98.6° F.), in some birds it is as high as 44° C, while in the wolf it is said to be under 36° C.
The average temperature of the human body in those internal parts which are most easily accessible, as the mouth and rectum, is from 36 . 9° to 37 . 4° C.
(98 . 5° to 99 . 5° F.). In different parts of the external surface of the human body the temperature varies only to the extent of one or two degrees centi- grade, when all are alike protected from cooling influences; and the differ- ence which under these circumstances exists depends chiefly upon the different degrees of blood supply.
