Between the Physiology of man and that of domestic animals 

 there is no fundamental difference and most of our knowledge of 

 human physiology has been acquired from experiments tipoii the 

 lower animals. Btit while the tissues of a man. a dog and a horse 

 act mttch in the same manner, the mode of ntitrition of these tis- 

 sues is somewhat dift'erei>t and rec[uires special attention in the 

 case of each. 



In this volume the attempt is made to give the Essentials of 

 General Physiology and of the special physiology of the domestic 

 animals in a form suitable to the requirements of students and . 

 practitioners of veterinary medicine. 



OPINION. 



"The examination which we have been able to give this work 

 has left a ver\- favorable impression, as it appears that the essen- 

 tials have been included, with nothing omitted except the padding, 

 which in some text-books of physiology reqtiire a vast amount of 

 reading to extract them, resulting in much confusion to students 

 and those who do not have the time nor inclination to make the 

 search for facts. 



"We recommend the work heartily in the sense that it reduces 

 the study of physiology to a 'reasonable' basis, and the atithor has 

 done for the reader what is a difficult task upon his own account. 

 Well printed, well bound, intelligently illustrated, ]\Iessrs. Keener 

 have placed a 'reasonable" physiology before the profession at a 

 reasonable price." — Am. Vet. Reviezv.
