Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Forces Which Carry on the Circulation of the Blood It cannot therefore be reasonably maintained that the labour and ingenuity bestowed by the physiologists of the last century in measuring the force of the heart have been ex pended in vain; and that it is no duty of the physiologists of the present day to recognise gratefully, and form a fair esti mate of those labours, while they join their own efforts to those of their predecessors to attain the end in view; never, however, forgetting that the task is one of ascertained difli culty that much caution and circumspection are necessary in applying the simple principles of Mechanics to the complex actions of living organs; and that to presume to differ from Harvey, or Hales, or Borelli is to contend on their own field with the giants and demigods of a bygone age.

Download or read book Harvey s Views on the Use of the Circulation of the Blood Classic Reprint written by John Green Curtis and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-07-15 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Harvey's Views on the Use of the Circulation of the Blood It was in 1628, the year of his fiftieth birthday, that Harvey published, at frankfort-ou-the-main, his fa mous Latin treatise entitled: An Anatomical Exer cise on the Motion of the Heart and Blood in Animals. A reader of to-day will be inclined to skim rapidly over the Introduction to this treatise and over much in the last three chapters; and probably he will take only a languid interest in the two brief Latin treatises which Harvey published in defense of the circulation, after more than twenty years of silence, In his seventy-first year, at Cambridge In 1649; these treatises being en titled: Two Anatomical Exercises on the Circulation of the Blood, to Johannes Riolanus, Junior, of Paris.

Download or read book An Experimental and Analytical Essay on the Powers by Which the Blood Is Circulated in the Veins Classic Reprint written by Maurice Fitz Gibbon and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-16 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Experimental and Analytical Essay, on the Powers by Which the Blood Is Circulated in the Veins The powers which circulate the blood, have been subjects of ih quiry ever since the great discovery of the circulation, and numerous are the Opinions that have been offered to account for the motion of this fluid; and yet it may be fairly asked, what do we really know, on which there rests no doubt in addition to these facts, that the blood is circulated, and that it acquires motion by the contraction of the heart. It is true we do know a little more, but this little has been, I think, greatly overrated, both in respect to its importance, and the degree of certainty which is attached to it. Notwithstanding all that has been said on the subject of the dias tole of the cavities of the heart, it is not yet generally understood, whether the fibres of the heart are active or passive while the diastole is being efi'ected, -i. E. Whether the fibres constituting the muscular parietes of the auricles and ventricles of the heart, are relaxed in each cavity during the time in which they receive blood, or whether they are actively concerned in dilating the cavity into which the blood enters. The Opinion of harvey is that which almost generally prevails in the schools. He contended that a state of inertia or re laxation succeeded to the systole of the heart, and that the heart itself is the sole mover of the blood. Thus supposing the auricles to be full of blood, and the ventricles empty; the former, according to his view, contract, force the blood into the latter cavities, separate their relaxed walls from each other, and distend them. The ventri cles now filled with blood, contract; the tricuspid and mitral valves are closed by the pressure made on the blood; the semilunar valves are opened by the same cause; the blood is forced into the arteries of the greater and lesser circulation, it moves onwards through the artel ries into the veins, back again through the latter vessels to the auri cles of the heart with undiminished velocity, and these cavities it enters, dilates, &c. The blood from the right ventricle goes through the arteries of the lungs, and from these into the pulmonary veins, thence into the left auricle. The left auricle forces it into the left ventricle, which contracts, forces it into the aorta, thence into all parts of the system, from which it is continued in motion by the force impressed upon it, into the veins, and by these to the right side of the heart.

This book was released on 2017-12-08 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Discovery of the Circulation of the Blood The name of Herophilus ought to be familiar to all students of anatomy, as many parts of the human body, such as the Choroid Plexus, the Torcular Herophili, the Calamus Scripto rius, the Duodenum, etc., were first described by him. The most important contribution that he made to our knowledge of the vascular system was the demonstration of the isochronism of the pulsations of the arteries and of the beating of the heart, and of the latter being the cause of the former, a phenomena that had already been imperfectly referred to by Hippocrates and Aris totle. Herophilus noticed also the difference in the thickness of the walls of the arteries and of the veins, and described the vessels connecting the heart and the lungs, distinguishing the pul monary artery from the pulmonary vein, designating the former as the arterial vein and the latter as the venous artery.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Brief Historical Sketch of the Circulation of the Blood Among the great discoveries Which the genius and patient re search of man have developed, none lay us under more grateful obligations, in View of its practical value and admirable simplicity, than that of the circulation of the blood. Historians record the rise, progress, and decline of nations, the discovery of new countries, and the exploits of conquering heroes, and yet pass almost unnoticed the achievements of men of science. Few persons are at all acquainted With the history of When and how, through a series of successive revelations, this truly wonderful function came to be thoroughly understood. It is a long and delightful story if followed through all its details, which I shall, however, endeavor to cut short in relating it to persons outside of the medical profession. We are obliged to glance back through several centuries and make the acquaintance of nearly a score of anatomical celebrities, Who have each contributed some observation or discovery leading to the final comprehension and complete interpretation of God's beautiful but simple method of circulating the Vital fluid and keeping it ever replenished and pure.

Download or read book Forces and Fields written by Mary B. Hesse and published by Courier Corporation. This book was released on 2005-01-01 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This history of physics focuses on the question, "How do bodies act on one another across space?" The variety of answers illustrates the function of fundamental analogies or models in physics, as well as the role of so-called unobservable entities. Forces and Fields presents an in-depth look at the science of ancient Greece, and it examines the influence of antique philosophy on seventeenth-century thought. Additional topics embrace many elements of modern physics—the empirical basis of quantum mechanics, wave-particle duality and the uncertainty principle, and the action-at-a-distance theory of Wheeler and Feynman. The introductory chapter, in which the philosophical view is developed, can be omitted by readers more interested in history. Author Mary B. Hesse examines the use of analogies in primitive scientific explanation, particularly in the works of Aristotle, and contrasts them with latter-day theories such as those of gravitation and relativity. Hesse incorporates studies of the Pre-Socratics initiated by Francis Cornford and continued by contemporary classical historians. Her perspective sheds considerable light on the scientific thinking of antiquity, and it highlights the debt that the seventeenth-century natural philosophers owed to Greek ideas.
