N2  - Reviews 17 publications (1913-1914) on fatigue, work, and inhibition. E. L. Thorndike, in his study of the effects of continued work for 4 h on writing poetry, found that speed of work is not benefited by rest, but the satisfaction of the work gets greatly enhanced by rest. I. E. Ash found noticeable fatigue in steady adding for periods of even 1 hr. E. Weber's work shows that muscular work brings about an increase in the blood supply to the musculature of the body, at the expense of the blood supply in the viscera.     <p>Cited in: Burnham JC (2009).
