A Text-Book on Anatomy, Physiology, and Hygiene, for the Use of Schools and Colleges (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from A Text-Book on Anatomy, Physiology, and Hygiene, for the Use of Schools and CollegesAlthough the chief object has been to prepare a text-book for academic students, the work is also designed for the use of schools and families; and students of medicine will find that it contains a few hints of value to them, especially in Lecture XXVII., which has been added for their benefit.The division of Hygiene will be found to present many facts of interest to the general reader; and, in view of the measured but apparently inevitable approach of cholera to our shores, we have in the last lecture given a short summary of the means by which we may hope to, avoid its attack.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
