Excerpt from Elements of Physiology and Hygiene A plant takes up the matter intended for its growth by means of vessels, or open mouths provided for that purpose, either in its roots or leaves. In these vessels, this matter undergoes the changes that fit it to become a part of the living plant, and by them it is carried to its proper place and built into the structure of the body. These instruments by which the food is absorbed, pre pared, and deposited are called Organs, and the body thus formed is an Organic body.

Excerpt from The Elements of Physiology and Hygiene: A Text-Book for Educational Institutions The eminent claim of Professor Huxley's Elementary Physiology is, that, while up to the times, it is trust. Worthy in its presentation of the subject; while rejecting discredited doctrines and doubtful speculations, it embodies the latest results that are established, and represents the present actual state of physiological knowledge.

Excerpt from Elements of the Anatomy, Physiology and Hygiene of the Human System In the first place, there must be a suitable mechanical structure. It must be sufficiently firm to support the weight and transmit the power which the purposes of life require; and this firmness is secured by the framework of bones which the body contains. This framework must not be a rigid structure, but capable of various motions. The joints are provided, to render these motions possible and the muscles are the system of connections by which the several parts of the frame are acted upon in the perform ance Of these functions.

Excerpt from The Human Mechanism: Its Physiology and Hygiene, and the Sanitation of Its Surroundings This edition presents a thorough revision in which the authors have incorporated those advances in physiology, hygiene, and sanitation which are directly applicable to the fundamental purpose Of this book, as stated in the preface to the first edition. Portions of certain chapters have been entirely rewritten, - notably those dealing with the work of organs and cells, internal secretions, digestion, nutrition, the nervous system, and the communicable diseases. Two new chapters have been added: one dealing with the hygiene of the mouth, nose, and throat and with focal infections in general; the other with diseases conveyed by insects. Advan tage has also been taken of the Opportunity Offered by the reprinting Of the entire work to make many changes in the interest Of greater simplicity or clearness of presentation. The two parts of this edition will, as heretofore, be issued also as separate books, entitled Elements of Physiology and Hygiene and Sanitation.

Excerpt from Health Studies Applied Physiology and Hygiene Anatomy and physiology, except in their simple elements, are of doubtful value for young pupils. But the study of how to keep well, or hygiene, is something that every boy and girl, man and woman, must learn or else must suffer for his ignorance. Hygiene, properly presented. Deals with things of everyday life. No pupil in the schools is too young to begin to learn how to adjust himself successfully to his surroundings. This learning how to meet our environment, as Professor Huxley long ago said, constitutes a liberal education. Many of the school texts have been based too exclusively on physiology, or have dealt largely with elementary anatomy, and have been difficult of comprehension to the pupils. Health studies differs materially from such books. It makes hygiene the primary study, and introduces only a sufficient amount of physiology to form a sound basis for the study of health principles. If this small book succeeds in helping its readers to think for themselves; if it encourages them in making their own definitions; if it leads them to realize that it is not ignorance but knowledge which leads to health, and there fore happiness; and finally, if it helps to prepare them to meet practical life as they will find it, - then its appear ance will have been justified.

Excerpt from Elements of Hygiene and Sanitation: Being Part II of "the Human Mechanism; Its Physiology and Hygiene and the Sanitation of Its Surroundings" The authors hold with Matthew Arnold that conduct is three fourths of life, and that this is no less true of the physical than of the moral and the intellectual life. They therefore make no apology for fixing upon conduct as the keynote Of the present work, and the right conduct of the physical life as the principal aim and end Of all elementary teaching of hygiene and sanitation.

Excerpt from Anatomy, Physiology, Hygiene The facts of Anatomy and Physiology are put as sim ply and clearly as possible; something in the way of object lessons, with the child himself as an object. The pupil is encouraged to look in the fields and markets to see the truth of the statements made, and is constantly referred to the pictures that illustrate the text for a bet ter understanding. Common diseases are mentioned, and the habits that lead to them emphasized. The book is in two parts, because it seems wiser to learn the parts and uses of a machine before attempting to run it, and the dependence of the systems is so inti mate that a knowledge of all should precede an attempt to study the hygiene of any one.

Excerpt from Physiology and Hygiene for Young People IT is realized to-day, as perhaps never before, that our most precious possession is good health. There never was a time when greater effort was put forth to make it possible for chil dren to grow up with strong, healthy bodies, and for grown people to live and do their work under healthful conditions. In the preparation of this book the authors have made it their chief aim to present the essential facts of. Personal, domestic, and public hygiene in such a way as to render the book an efficient ally of the forces that are working for healthy living. A man entrusted with the care and running of a machine far less intricate than the human body is expected to know all its parts, and their relations to one another, before he is fitted to run the machine at its greatest efficiency. It is equally reasonable to expect that one is best fitted to care for his body, the machine with which he must do all his work, only when he knows its parts and the work that each should perform. Accordingly, in this book a sufficient amount of anatomy and physiology of the organs of the body is given to make their hygiene intelligible.
