Book Description
Excerpt from Principles of Human Physiology: With Their Chief Applications to Psychology, Pathology, Therapeutics, Hygiène, and Forensic Medicine In accordance with the foregoing plan, the Second, Third, and Fifth Chapters of the last Edition of this work, which included a summary of Animal Chemistry, and of the Structure and Actions of the Animal Tissues, amounting in all to about 240 pages, have been omitted from the present. On the other hand, additions have been made, to the amount of about 70 pages; and these by no means constitute the whole of the new matter introduced, since many portions have been rewritten, with little or no increase of bulk. It has been the Author's desire, on this as on former occasions, that his Treatise should represent his present convictions and opinions, as completely as if it were making its appear ance for the first time; and he has accordingly subjected every part of it to a revision not less careful than that which he would have bestowed upon it, had it less recently passed under a similar scrutiny. Although the minor results of this revision, which are scattered through almost every part of the volume, would not be apparent save on a searching comparison, yet he trusts that they will be found to have increased the utility of the work; those of more importance, however, he deems it well now to particularize.

Book Description
Excerpt from Principles of General Physiology IN the preparation of courses of lectures dealing with various physiological processes I have found considerable difficulty, and spent much time, in the extraction from books and original papers, many of them not biological, of material of fundamental importance in the proper treatment of the subject. The mechanism of reactions in heterogeneous systems may be mentioned. It seemed to me, therefore, that the results of this labour might be of use to others, whose work does not allow them sufficient time to read articles which do not appear to bear upon their particular domain of science. In arranging these facts, however, it became manifest that a somewhat wider treatment would be of more value, so that the book might be of service to all desiring a general, elementary, treatment of what may be called abstract physiology, as distinct from the applied physiology required by the agricultural, medical, or veterinary student for the purpose of his profession. In extenuation of my conduct in producing a work on physiology for the use, as I venture to hope, of all those who have any interest in science, I should like to quote a few words by Huxley to be found in his address, On the Educational Value of the Natural History Sciences (huxley, 1902-1903, p. 59 - see Bibliography). He gives an answer to the question. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
