Book Description
Excerpt from Anatomy and Physiology Rendered Attractive: And the Laws of Health Made Plain, in Conversations Between a Physician and Families, and for General Reading The origin of this work may be briefly stated. Within the last ten years the author has been requested, at various times, to address assemblies, particularly Sabbath Schools and Lyceums, upon the subject treated in this book. The thought and study necessary to the preparation of these lectures, have impressed him with the belief that the numerous works on Anatomy and Physiology, designed for the use of schools and for popular reading, have been essentially deficient, inasmuch as reference is seldom made in them, to the proofs that stand out so prominently in every part and organ of the human body, of the wisdom and goodness of God in its formation. This, perhaps, should not be expected in purely scientific works upon these subjects, designed solely for the Student of Medicine; yet, even in these, an occasional reference to the abundant proofs of creative goodness, would not be out of place. But in works designed for popular instruction, such deficiency is certainly a defect. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
