III. — BIOLOGY OF MAN. 



Investigations of this class include human structure, or anatomy; 

 diseases, or pathology ; questions of size, form and weight, color, and 

 texture of parts, or anthropometry; the progress of life in the indi- 

 vidual, or ontogeny; and the life history of the species, or phylogeny. 

 This subject is of vast proportions. Already biological societies multi- 

 ply, in which the human subject receives its share of attention as the 

 head of the animal kingdom. In the Index Medicos, before mentioned, 

 a monthly catalogue of works on human and general biology is given.
