Publisher's Synopsis

Vital Dynamics: The Hunterian Oration Before The Royal College Of Surgeons In London (1840) is a book written by Joseph Henry Green. The book is a transcript of the oration that Green delivered before the Royal College of Surgeons in London in 1840. In the oration, Green discusses the concept of vital dynamics, which is the study of the forces that drive living organisms. He explores the idea that living organisms are not simply machines, but rather complex systems that are driven by a variety of physical and chemical forces. Green also discusses the role of the nervous system in controlling these forces, and he explores the implications of his ideas for the practice of medicine. The book provides a fascinating insight into the early days of modern medicine and the development of new ideas about the nature of life and living organisms. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of science and medicine.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
