Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Importance of the Sciences of Anatomy and Physiology as a Branch of General Education: Being an Introduction to a Course of Lectures to the Upper Classes in Brown University
Anatomy teaches the structure of organized sub stances, Whether animal or vegetable. Physiology comprises a knowledge of their functions and modes of action. Commonly, however, the two terms are restricted in their application to animal bodies, and in the present course of lectures our attention will be confined to the anatomy and physiology of man; though I shall, occasion ally, illustrate our subject, by comparisons drawn between the structure of the human and brute species.
