Excerpt from Elements of Human Physiology When, now two years ago, at the solicitation of several friends, I undertook the translation of Professor Hermann's 'Elements of Physiology, ' I was actuated by the conviction, shared in by nearly all teachers, that an urgent need existed for an English text-book which should represent the actual state of the science. It appeared to me, at the same time, that no text-book on Physiology existed in any European language at once so concise, comprehensive, and philosophical as the work which I now introduce to the English reader, and I therefore undertook its translation. During the progress of my task, which a multiplicity of occupations caused to be a more protracted one than I had anticipated, my early convictions as to the excellence of the work have steadily deepened.
