Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Public School Physiology and Temperance In preparing this text-book, much difficulty was experienced in dealing with a subject of a somewhat technical character without using too freely the technical terms incident to Anatomy and Physiology. The practice of the authors of the best text-books published has, however, been followed. The introduction of a limited number of the simpler scientific names, while partly a necessity, nevertheless affords an opportunity for pupils to become early acquainted with the various parts of the human frame under names which are more correct and more suitable than many of the familiar terms in common use; besides, experience shows it is impossible to fix in the memory a knowledge of any subject, except by the use of its own appropriate nomenclature. The object of the author has been to put clearly before the teachers and pupils the leading facts concerning the structure and functions of the various organs of the body, and, at the same time, to associate with these facts the physiological action and effects of alcoholic stimulants and narcotics. The pupil is, in this way, at every turn confronted with the evil effects of alcohol and tobacco, the dangers accompanying their use, and the tremendous risk of tampering with such powerful agents of destruction.
