Book excerpt: Excerpt from Intensive Work in Science at the Public Schools in Relation to the Medical Curriculum Rev. W. A. Johnson, Founder and Word'm of Tim Colic e School Canada. Ty gscope the marvels in a drop of dirty pond water, and who on Saturday excursions up the river could talk of the Trilobites and the Ortho ceratites, and explain the formation of the earth's crust. No more dry husks for me after such a diet, and early in my college life I kicked over the traces and exchanged the ciassics with divers as represented by Pearson, Browne, and Hooker, for Hunter, Lyell, and Huxley. From the study of nature to the study of man was an easy step. My experience was that of thousands, yet, as I remember, we were athirst for good literature What a delight it would have been to have had Chapman's Odyssey read to us, or Plato's Phaedo, on a Sunday evening, or the Vera Historia. What atragedy to climb Parnassus in a fog! How I have cursed the memory of Protagoras since finding that he introduced grammar into the curriculum, and forged the fetters which chained generations of schoolboys in he cold formalism of words. How different now that Moawaigne and Milton and Locke and Petty have outhe to their own, and are recognised as meg of sense in the matter of the training of y m.

Download or read book Disrupted Dialogue written by Robert M. Veatch and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2005 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Medical ethics changed dramatically in the past 30 years because physicians and humanists actively engaged each other in discussions that sometimes led to confrontation and controversy, but usually have improved the quality of medical decision-making. Before then, medical ethics had been isolated for almost two centuries from the larger philosophical, social, and religious controversies of the time. Only in the past three decades has the dialogue resumed as physicians turned to humanists for help just when humanists wanted their work to be relevant to real-life social problems. The book tells the critical story of how the breakdown in communication between physicians and humanists occurred and how it was repaired when new developments in medicine together with a social revolution forced the leaders of these two fields to resume their dialogue.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: . Renewal of Life by Transmission. The most notable distinction between living and inanimate things is that the former maintain themselves by renewal. A stone when struck resists. If its resistance is greater than the force of the blow struck, it remains outwardly unchanged. Otherwise, it is shattered into smaller bits. Never does the stone attempt to react in such a way that it may maintain itself against the blow, much less so as to render the blow a contributing factor to its own continued action. While the living thing may easily be crushed by superior force, it none the less tries to turn the energies which act upon it into means of its own further existence. If it cannot do so, it does not just split into smaller pieces (at least in the higher forms of life), but loses its identity as a living thing. As long as it endures, it struggles to use surrounding energies in its own behalf. It uses light, air, moisture, and the material of soil. To say that it uses them is to say that it turns them into means of its own conservation. As long as it is growing, the energy it expends in thus turning the environment to account is more than compensated for by the return it gets: it grows. Understanding the word "control" in this sense, it may be said that a living being is one that subjugates and controls for its own continued activity the energies that would otherwise use it up. Life is a self-renewing process through action upon the environment.

This book was released on 2017-11-14 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Medical Education and Practice in All Parts of the World From my own personal experience of British and Continental schools I can bear testimony to the vast superiority of the laboratory arrangements of the latter over those of the former. This grave defect in our system of medical education should be amongst the first to be remedied by the framers of our new medical laws. The fees for attendance at the schools and hos pitale need also to be considerably lessened, thus bringing within reach of rich and poor alike the Opportunity of entering the profession. Such liberal reforms as these would contribute no less to the advance ment of science than to the comfort and convenience of the community.
