The Origin and Development of the Nervous System From a Physiological Viewpoint by the author, a leading zoologist, explores the origins of nervous systems from a physiological standpoint. The author posits that nervous systems are not solely created by random genetic mutations but are often developed in response to environmental pressures and changing conditions. This book scientifically explores the basis for this theory using examples from various living organisms. The author argues that excitation and transmission, behaviors that are often viewed as secondary functions of nervous systems, are in fact primary factors in their development. Nervous systems are not simply added to organisms as they evolve but, instead, develop in response to environmental pressures and changing conditions. The author draws on examples from various living organisms to support this theory, providing readers with an in-depth understanding of the origins and development of nervous systems.
