Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book introduces physiological research conducted on life and death in the early 19th century. The author divides life into two categories: animal and organic life. Animal life encapsulates the senses and voluntary functions conducted by the brain and nervous system, while organic life consists of assimilation and excretion carried out by the body's organs. The author posits that health and proper function rely on the symmetry and harmony of the body's systems: symmetry in the animal life's form and organs, and harmony in their action. As such, when one side of the body is compromised, the corresponding function on the opposite side compensates to maintain equilibrium. This text provides a foundation for understanding the relationship between life, death, and physiological function, exploring the delicate balance that governs our existence and the resilience of the human body. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
