Excerpt
The well-known and enormous ability of micro-organisms to adapt themselves to new conditions of life has been a frequent cause of complications in bacteriological studies. The adaptability of micro-organisms to environment is, at a glance, greater than that of higher organisms, no doubt owing to their higher reproduction-rate and their unicellular condition. A particular case is that of adaptation to drugs, some aspects of whch are discussed in this paper. This phenomenon has been knon-n since the time when drugs active against micro-organisms were first discowred, and now certain well-established methods of chemotherapy seem to be threatened by it.
