Excerpt from The Human Body, an Account of Its Structure and Activities, and the Conditions of Its Healthy Working
IN the following pages I have endeavored to give an account of the structure and activities of the Human Body, which, while intelligible to the general reader, shall be accu rate, and sufficiently minute in details to meet the require ments of students who are not making Human Anatomy and Physiology subjects of special advanced study. Wherever it seemed to me really profitable, hygienic topics have also been discussed, though at first glance they may seem less fully treated of than in many School or College Text-books of Physiology. Whoever will take the trouble, however, to examine critically what passes for Hygiene in the majority of such cases will, I think, find that, when correct, much of it is platitude or truism: since there is so much that is of impor tance and interest to be said it seems hardly worth while to occupy space with insisting on the commonplace or Obvious.
