"Animal Proteins" by Hugh Garner Bennett is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. The text serves as a detailed exploration of animal proteins, specifically focusing on their chemistry, structure, and industrial applications, particularly within the leather, glue, and other related trades. Bennett aims not only to elucidate the characteristics and classification of various proteins but also to highlight their relevance in industrial settings. The opening of the volume presents a preface that discusses the author's objectives and the significance of animal proteins in applied chemistry, particularly as they relate to the leather industry. It emphasizes the prominence of colloid chemistry and its impact on the production and treatment of animal-based materials. The initial chapters introduce protein structures, including their basic elements and complex compositions, and set the stage for a thorough examination of the materials and processes involved in industrial applications, indicating a shift towards more scientific understanding in traditional practices.
