Author Description

Excerpt from Mammalian Physiology: A Course of Practical Exercises The course as arranged here has taken shape gradually under experience during the endeavour to devise the kind of teaching needed. It has come to comprise twenty-one lessons, each consisting of somewhat less than three hours' work. On the twenty-four lesson cycle as followed in this University, three class-meetings remain over for repetition of such particular items as the student may want to revise before examination. To the student's directions for each exercise is subjoined a short annotation concerning the source and bearings of some of the more salient observations included in the Exercise. If in these remarks the trend is often historical, it is because that approach has seemed to enable the student best to assess for himself the intellectual cost and value of the observations he is repeating.
