Advanced Lessons In Human Physiology And Hygiene PDF Download

Excerpt from Essential Lessons in Human Physiology and Hygiene: For Schools IN the preparation of the following chapters on hu man physiology and hygiene, the author has attempted to present only such facts as are essential to the most practical knowledge of the subject - that is, such facts as people in the common walks of life most need to know, and such facts as all can remember and make use of whenever occasion demands. The plan of the work is such as adapts it to the needs, not only of in termediate classes in graded schools, but of the large number of pupils in the country schools where the time which can be devoted to the study of this subject is necessarily limited. As a general rule, an effort has been made to speak briefly and to the point, without unnecessary verbiage; and, wherever such could be done without sacrificing accuracy or clearness of state ment, rigid condensation has been practiced. It is believed, however, that this will not detract from the interest of the narrative or from the practical worth of the lessons. Many interesting facts, especially in anatomy, have been ruled out as not being knowledge of value to those for whom the book is intended. As the purpose and end of all such studies is the inculca tion of rules and principles for the preservation of health, anatomy and physiology are throughout made subservient to hygiene and hygienic precepts.
