Directions for Class Work in Practical Physiology ELEMENTARY PHYSIOLOGY OF MUSCLE AND NERVE AND OF THE VASCULAR AND NERVOUS SYSTEMS BY E. A. SCHÄFER, LL.D., F.R.S. Professor of Physiology in the University of Edinburgh; formerly WITH DIAGRAMS LONGMANS, GREEN, AND CO. 91 AND 93 FIFTH AVENUE, NEW YORK 1901 PREFACE THE following directions are based upon an experience of many years in University College, London, where such a course of instruction was first instituted by Professor Burdon-Sanderson. Although they have long been in use I have now had them printed for the convenience of my Edinburgh students. There are several text-books dealing with the same subject, but they are all more elaborate, and concern themselves with many problems which the average medical student cannot be expected to investigate for himself. this account perfectly simple instructions dealing only with such elementary exercises as can readily be worked out by even a large class, may, it is hoped, prove useful to other teachers and students than those for whom they are primarily intended.
