Excerpt from The Student's Human Physiology: A First Year's Course in the Practice, and Theory of the Subject In nearly every published report which deals with the condition of the people there is one outstanding feature, viz. the lamentable lack among the people of the knowledge of the working of the human body, and of the Laws of Health. It is also generally recognised among experts that the consequent physical degeneracy, which arises from the ignorance of health matters, might be prevented if the people were given an adequate education in Human Physiology and Hygiene. At present, in schools and colleges of all descriptions, little is being done in the way of bringing within the reach of the mass of the people a knowledge of the elementary principles which underlie Health Science. In fact, there is an actual decrease in the teaching of Human Physiology and Hygiene in evening continuation schools, secondary schools, and evening technical schools. If the future race is to grow up strong, with a sound mind in a sound body, it is time to introduce into the regular school course the study of Human Physiology and Hygiene.
