Excerpt from The Elements of Physiology Observational work should be carried on to the. Extent, at. Least, of obtaining clear ideas of the parts considered and of the processes involved in their operation. Systematic laboratory work where it can be arranged for, is a most. Valuable aid in the mastery of the sub jcet. Where this cannot be provided, class experiments and observa tions must be supplied by the teacher. The experiments and observa tions given in this book are for class purposes and are intended to serve a necessary part in the development of the subject. The list, which is suggestive rather than exhaustive, includes such as are simple and require little apparatus. A note book should be kept by the pupil.

Excerpt from Elements of Physiology: Including Physiological Anatomy, for the Use of the Medical Student Tns present volume owes its origin to a desire on the part of the Publisher, that an elementary treatise on Physiology should be added to the series of admirable Students' Manuals, on the various depart ments of Medical Science, which he had previously issued. In carrying this desire into execution, the Author has endeavored to avoid inflicting upon the class for whose use the Treatise is especially intended, the injury of placing in their hands such a superficial and imperfect sketch of the science, as, whilst affording them but a limited amount of knowledge of its facts, should leave them very ill-informed as to its general doctrines. His object has rather been to convey to the Student as clear an idea as possible of those Principles of Physiology which are based on the broadest and most satisfactory foundation, and to point out the mode in which these principles are applied to the explanation of the phenomena presented by the living actions of the Human body. In this manner has the Author desired to prepare him for that more detailed study of the latter, which becomes necessary when Physiology is pursued (as it ought to be) in connexion with the changes produced in the living body by Morbific and Remedial Agents, and is thus taken as a guide in the study of the causes, prevention, and treat ment of Disease - which should be the primary object of attention with every one who undertakes the practice of his Profession.

Excerpt from Elements of Physiology and Hygiene A plant takes up the matter intended for its growth by means of vessels, or open mouths provided for that purpose, either in its roots or leaves. In these vessels, this matter undergoes the changes that fit it to become a part of the living plant, and by them it is carried to its proper place and built into the structure of the body. These instruments by which the food is absorbed, pre pared, and deposited are called Organs, and the body thus formed is an Organic body.

Excerpt from The Elements of Physiology for Schools The present backward state of methods in teaching physiology is probably to be attributed to the fact that the text-books have been written by physicians, who, by reason of the duties of their noble and arduous profession, have not had time or opportunity to learn much about teaching. The point of view of their profession may also explain why so many physiologies are written from the standpoint of sick ness instead of from the optimistic standpoint of health and strength. Language and mathematics have been taught in the schools for centuries; the majority of the natural sciences have not been taught for more than half a century, which is all too Short a time in which to learn to teach them most effectively. The present book is an effort toward raising physiology as a disciplinary study to the plane of grammar and arithmetic, with the idea also that the reasoning required in the many exercises will help to more thorough understanding, and therefore better remembrance, of what is learned. What Should we think of an arithmetic or a gram mar ih which every question was explained, every exercise worked out, and consequently everything a matter of memory and learning by rote? Yet in exactly this way have the school physiologies been written, and with such books the teacher has had small chance to keep the pupils from learning physiology by rote.
