TAILIEUCHUNG - Physiology and Hygiene for Secondary Schools

The aim in the preparation of this treatise on the human body has been, first, to set forth in a teachable manner the actual science of physiology; and second, to present the facts of hygiene largely as applied physiology. The view is held that "right living" consists in the harmonious adjustment of one's habits to the nature and plan of the body, and that the best preparation for such living is a correct understanding of the physical self. It is further held that the emphasizing of physiology augments in no .small degree the educative value of the subject, greater opportunity. | Physiology and Hygiene for Secondary Schools by Francis M.

The view is held that right living consists in the harmonious adjustment of one s habits to the nature and plan of the body and that the best preparation for such living is a correct understanding of the physical self. It is further held that the emphasizing of physiology augments in no small degree the educative value of the subject greater opportunity being thus afforded for exercise of the reasoning powers and for drill in the modus operandi of natural forces. In the study of physiology the facts of anatomy have a place but in an elementary course these should be restricted to such as are necessary for revealing the general structure of the body. Although no effort has been spared to bring this work within the comprehension of the pupil its success in the classroom will depend largely upon the method of handling the subject by the teacher. It is recommended therefore that the relations which the different organs and processes sustain to each other and to the body as a whole be given special prominence. The pupil should be impressed with the essential unity of the body and should see in the diversity of its activities the serving of a common purpose.
