| Summary: | "The author endeavors to supply a systematic and connected view of modern physiology by presenting the student with a concise view of the present state of the science, embracing an account of the most important facts and observations, as well as of those theories and hypotheses which have been the most generally received, or have been sanctioned by the authority of the most eminent names. The author gives an account of the nature of the two powers of contractility and sensibility, and of the organs by which they are exercised: the muscles and the nerves. Membrane, bone, and circulation of the blood are also described"--Preface. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2009 APA, all rights reserved). |
