Synopsis First Book on Analytic Anatomy, Physiology and Hygiene, Human and Comparative by : Calvin Cutter
Excerpt from First Book on Analytic Anatomy, Physiology and Hygiene, Human and Comparative: For Common and Grammar Schools and for Families This manual, designed for Common and Grammar Schools and for families, has been prepared with several objects in view. First: To so limit its size, to make its analysis so complete, to secure so natural an arrangement, with so apposite and artistic illustrations, as to render it usable in Common Schools having terms of ten or fourteen weeks, and also to present such topics for consideration as shall interest and profit pupils, parents and the people in the laws of health, which are based upon a knowledge of the laws of physiology. Second: To secure these results, the outlines of the human system are discussed relative to structure, to use and to health, with so much of Comparative Anatomy (Zoology) as is deemed needful to show the analogy that exists between man and the inferior animals, and to appetite for more extended study in the science of life. The treatment of some of the common ills of life, of wounded, poisoned and asphyxiated persons, is briefly discussed in their appropriate chapters. Another object in view has been to make the style clear, concise and adapted to the references made to illustrative figures, to teach the pupil the correct word, though it may be a technical term, believing it is best to use those terms which express the ideas that are peculiar to the study. As the study of objects is more simple and impressive than mere words, and as illustrations are more instructive, particularly to children, than written sentences, this work has been so arranged as to be used advantageously, with OBJECT study and topical instruction, especially with Outline Anatomical Charts, both human and comparative. As use is the test on a text-book, this manual is respectfully submitted to teachers and to patrons of schools.
