Summary: "A Practical Physiology: A Text-Book for Higher Schools" by Albert F. Blaisdell is a scientific publication written in the late 19th century. This textbook delves into the essential aspects of human physiology and hygiene, tailored specifically for students in higher educational settings. The text emphasizes both the anatomical and functional understanding of the human body, aiming not only to educate about bodily structures but also to connect this knowledge to principles of health and wellness. The opening of the book introduces the field of physiology, igniting curiosity by highlighting fundamental questions about human life, such as how food contributes to the body’s intricate structures and the processes that sustain life. Blaisdell establishes the book's pedagogical approach, stating the importance of practical experiments alongside theoretical study to foster understanding. He underscores how physiology serves not just academic pursuits but also applies directly to personal health and living well. The section outlines various key topics and lays a framework for examining the body’s systems, addressing the interplay between anatomy and the functions they serve, thus preparing students for a comprehensive study of human physiology.
