SECOND 

 PRINTING 



Stiles' Human Physiology 



This physiology is particularly adapted for high schools and general colleges. It is written 

 by a teacher who has not lost the point of view of elementary students. Professor Stiles 

 has the faculty of making clear, even to the unscientific reader, physiologic processes 

 more or less difficult of comprehension. This he does by the use of homely similes.

 each organ, each secretion plays in the physiology of nutrition — ^in the transformation 

 of energy.
