Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from General Biology, Vol. 1 Several years ago it was our good fortune to follow as grad uate students a course of lectures and practical study in General Biology, under the direction of Professor Martin, at Johns Hop kins University. Since that time we have ever been strongly of the opinion that beginners in Biology should be introduced to the subject by some similar method, following in the main the outlines marked out by Huxley and Martin more than ten years ago. The present work thus owes its origin to the influence of the authors of the Elementary Biology, our deep indebtedness to whom we gratefully acknowledge.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from General Biology: A Book of Outlines and Practical Studies for the General Student This book offers a series of practical studies Of biological phenomena for the guidance of the general student. It is not a formal text, and not at all a treatise, but only a guide intended to assist the student in acquiring for himself some real knowledge Of living nature. It differs chiefly from other books intended for the use of college classes in the wider range of studies it offers, some important phases of biology having hitherto been dismissed with mere didactic instruction. Morphology has dominated - Often monopo lized - college work in biology in the past; doubtless, be cause it was first reduced to pedagogic form, and made available for laboratory instruction. A more equable treatment is here attempted, in the hope of leading the student to a practical acquaintance with elementary phenomena in the whole broad field.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to the Study of General Biology: Designed for the Use of Schools and Science Classes In the preparation of this work, designed, as it is, to meet the wants of junior science students in connection with the Science and Art Department, the Syllabus of the Elementary Stage in General Biology has been followed. It is not intended, however, to supersede the use of the scalpel or microscope, or.oral instruction from a competent teacher. On the contrary, it is hoped that, with its aid, and with the other helps recommended, the student will examine the great field of nature for himself, and thus acquire that kind of knowledge which it is most desirable and delightful to possess - namely, the knowledge derived from a patient questioning and examination of those Obj ects in nature to which one's studies are Specially.

Download or read book A Text Book of Biology for Students in General Medical and Technical Courses Classic Reprint written by William Martin Smallwood and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-05 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Text-Book of Biology for Students in General, Medical and Technical Courses IN this edition the general plan of the previous editions is retained but made more logical by bringing forward the chapters on plants so that the value to be derived from the evolutionary point of view can be employed in the study of the plant types discussed. The chapter on hydra is shifted for a similar reason. The section dealing with the biology of cells (chapters VIII - XI) has been entirely rearranged and extended in order that it may furnish a better foundation for the present-day conception of biology. The laboratory suggestions at the beginning of each chapter are omitted and attention is called to Laboratory Outlines by Hargitt and Hargitt which meets the needs of those wishing laboratory directions for the present edition. This book may be secured by writing directly to Professor C. W. Hargitt, Syracuse University, Syracuse, N. Y. The historical development of biology, typified in large part by the emphasis which certain great men placed first upon one aspect of living things and then upon another, affords a natural approach to our subject: Linnaeus (1707 - 17 78) emphasized the external form of organisms, while Haller (1708 - 1777) inquired into the general physiological activities of living things. These two men may be given credit for defining the two lines of study, morphology and physiology, which enter so largely into all modern courses in biology.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introduction to General Biology The third change is the omission of the laboratory directions, these having been found unsuitable. The needs of different teachers differ so widely that it is impossible to draw up a scheme that shall answer for all. In place of the laboratory directions for students we have therefore given, in an appendix, a series of prae tical suggestions to teachers, leaving it to them to work out de tailed directions, if desired, by the help of the standard labora tory manuals. These suggestions are the result of a good deal of experience on the part of many teachers besides ourselves, and we hope they will be found useful in procuring and preparing material (often a matter of considerable difficulty), and in decid ing just what the student may reasonably be expected to do.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elementary Biology: Plant, Animal, Human IN the Preface to Plant Biology we discussed the general point of view that we believed should be emphasized in a course in elementary biology for students of high school age. We there stated that in our judgment the primary emphasis in the whole course should be placed on the many relations of biology to human welfare. Many. Of the experiments in that volume, especially those relating to the chemical com position of lifeless and living things, the tests for the food substances, and the principles of osmosis and of respiration, apply equally well in the discussion of animal and human biology.

Book excerpt: The present work is based chiefly upon the Introduction to the authors Manual of Zoology, much of which is given here in an unaltered form. A considerable portion, however, of the Introduction has been here recast, whilst fully two-thirds of the work consists of new matter. Illustrations also have been introduced wherever such appeared to be necessary. Many important subjects have, of course, been necessarily treated very superficially, or altogether omitted, as unsuitable for a merely elementary work. It is hoped, however, that most of those subjects are touched upon, a knowledge of which would be useful to the student of living or extinct forms of life, or to the general reader.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Practical Plant Biology: A Course of Elementary Lectures on the General Morphology and Physiology of Plants At the outset the use of the microscope is treated, and special consideration is given to microscopic measurement and to the reconstruction of microscopic objects in the solid. The plants chosen as subjects of study are necessarily limited in number. They have been selected, as fairly representing some of the more important subdivisions of the vegetable kingdom, and as being, at the same time, easy to procure. Attention is directed only to those points of their structure, life, history, and manner of living which are necessary in order that the student should appreciate some of the general principles of morphology, physiology, and evolution. The lectures deal first with the simpler forms, among which are to be found some of the most important so far as general biology is concerned. They then pass on to the more complicated, and gradually lead the student to some knowledge of the development, structure, and physiology of the higher plants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Lessons in Elementary Biology On the other hand, the advantage to logical treatment of proceeding from the simple to the complex - of working upwards from protists to the higher plants and animals - is so immense that it is not to be abandoned without very good and sufficient reasons. In my own experience I have found that the difficulty may be largely met by a compromise, namely, by beginning the work of the class by a comparative study of one of the higher plants (flowering plant or fern) and of one of the higher animals (rabbit, frog, or crayfish). If there were no limitations as to time, and if it were possible to avoid alto gether the valley of the shadow of the coming examination, this preliminary work might be extended with advantage, and made to include a fairly complete although elementary study of animal physiology, with a minimum of anatomical detail, and a somewhat extensive study of flowering plants with special reference to their physiology and to their relations to the rest of nature. In any case by the time this introductory work is over, the student of average intelligence has overcome pre liminary difficulties, and is ready to profit by the second and more systematic part of the course in which organisms are studied in the order of increasing complexity.

Download or read book General Biology Classic Reprint written by Leonas Lancelot Burlingame and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-23 with total page 604 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biology holds answers to some of the most pertinent questions of evolution. It is in this context that General Biology by Leonas Lancelot Burlingame holds its own as it encapsulates all the major strands in the subject while consciously ensuring that the book is relevant to the layman as well as professionals with domain knowledge. The reader will be pleased to find discussions on principles of biology rather than factual data that might be difficult to comprehend. Spread across numerous chapters, the underlying theme in General Biology by Leonas Lancelot Burlingame revolves around interdependence of organisms. Broken into sections with a total of 44 chapters that cover the life cycle of plants and animals, the author deconstructs rather complex explanations into easy summaries with lots of diagrams. The book draws out important differences between man and other living beings to show why human beings are at the epitome of the evolutionary cycle. This work borrows from more specific insights into plants, insects and other organisms by various scholars to provide a holistic view of biology. Unlike some other works, the reader can sift through concepts without going through the book in its entirety. The clear distribution and breakup of key concepts makes General Biology a ready reference for students of the subject as well as casual readers alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Elementary Plant Biology In the judgment Of the authors the kind of biology most worth while for the average boy or girl of fourteen years Of age is not' one based primarily on structure. Young stu dents are naturally more interested in activities or func tions than they are in mere form or structure. Hence, if we wish to work with, rather than against the grain, we must put function in the foreground of our discussion. Every boy and girl knows, too, that both plants and animals as well as human beings must have food and drink, and that they grow and reproduce their kind. It is relatively much easier, therefore, to unify a course like this along physiological lines than on the basis of morphology, or of homologies of structure, many of which are far too complicated to be made clear to young students.
