Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This early 19th century book on physiology, the study of living things, is written with a focus on young readers. The author begins by exploring the differences between animate and inanimate objects by examining their motion and growth, concluding that living things have an internal power of motion and possess the ability to convert other things into their own nature. The author introduces varying levels of complexity in organisms and their systems of organs and how they serve the needs of an organism. This book seeks to introduce young people to the wonder of physiology and stimulate their curiosity about the world around them, and demonstrates how organized beings share essential characteristics that set them apart from non-living matter.
