Description
Excerpt from Elements of Physiology
An'' eloquent modern writer on anatomy complains that too much attention is now bestow ed ou physiology, while anatomy, on which sound physiology ought to rest, is neglected. That anatomy ought to be made the ground-work of all medical education, and that a tho rough knowledge of the structure of the human body ought to precede the study of its func tions, is indisputable nor does the truth of this opinion appear to be denied by any one in the present day and, accordingly, anatomy appears every where to be cultivated with ardour. In all places of medical education, the number, both of teachers and students of anatomy, is increased in much greater proportion than in any other department of professional study. Dissection is now considered as essential in the study of anatomy, and almost a new system of minute surgical anatomy has been instituted within a few years.
