Man the Most Complex Body.-- it embodies in the epitome of the whole universe!  Man is more elaborate, more complex, more God-like, than any other living organism; more wonderful, more beautiful, more marvelous, that any work of human ingenuity, conception or construction. Indeed, the mechanism, the skill and the workmanship displayed in the human body is simply perfection itself.  In conception, it is divine; and design, perfect; in architecture, grand; in construction, wonderful; and beauty, lovely; inform, symmetrical; an outline, sublime; in strength, great; and arrangements, marvelous; and mobility, transcendent; and adaptability, unexcelled; in fine, when studied in all its parts and their relationship to each other, we are led to exclaim with the Psalmist David, that the human body is "fearfully and wonderfully made."

This paragraph was excruciatingly interesting for its use of commas and semicolons.  I'm using a dictation device to record this and I thought I was going to go nuts with the alterations from commas to semicolons and back again! This particular section precedes and follows chart to which provides a diagram of the human torso absent skin, it's a flip open picture that provides a great deal of detail of the internal organs of the human torso.  Part of me wonders if all of this exceptional description and praise of the beauty of the human body is used in part to show the purest intent of the author does not be sacrilegious or possibly vulgar and providing pictures of human body.  I see this in part because last I was watching CNN and date pretrade apportion a segment on a doctor in Egypt.  This particular doctor is a woman and she is a sexologist and a Muslim and the first-ever talkshow host on Muslim television that talks about sex.  She is sometimes labeled the Dr. Ruth of the Islamic world. As I was reading the section I was thinking of that CNN segment with her and wondering if she had to utilize similar praises and religious associations so as to not to offend her audience anymore than she already is just by the act of what she's doing and the perception of the taboo and possibly stigmas that are associated with what she is doing. In addition this paragraph also had a religious reference which I have no idea what it means, and frankly this evening I don't have the gear acid you to figure it out I'm sure there will be many more to explore later on in the book.

• THE BRAIN; AND A VERTICAL SECTION OF THE FACE AND NECK.
  
  

  in this section we start to follow the book as it starts to describe some of the basic functions in areas of the brain. The sexual be much more enlightening once we have the pictures up (chart 1). For now the language sounds somewhat overdone, however forth. The language was actually fairly straightforward and basic.

  What the Plate Shows – as we progress in our anatomical core says of study, our tension is firmly and deeply fixed in wonder and amazement at the marvelous mechanism revealed in the sublime profundity and grandeur brought out in this magnificent artistic plate. it brings before our astonished vision the beautiful proportions and symmetry of the human brain as it lays in situ within its bony castle; and as we look upon its way becalmed Aleutians we naturally turn our thoughts to the hidden mysteries of mind and to its superiority over matter, and to the illimitable intellectual properties,powers and capacity of the mind, that lay quietly slumbering in the depths of the human brain, for the mind of man surpasseth all things of human conception or construction. Below this mighty throne of reason and intelligence, on the left, we observed the cerebellum or lesser brain, I found from whence all the vegetative or organic functions of life — as respiration, beating of the heart, digestion, etc. — receive their inspiration and supply of vital force.

  there are two more parts that go along with this section of this chapter, the next section is the “view of the eye” and then the “the neck muscles” section. as these next two sections are relatively sure we will cover those together in the next article.

• How to Destroy the Breeding places of Mosquitoes-Part 1
  
  

  How to Destroy the Breeding places of Mosquitoes.-No breeding places, no eggs and consequently known mosquitos.  We consider that one mosquito can lay 200 to 300 eggs at a time and then figure the number of living pests we have seen in one evening, it can readily be seen how rapidly they can develop and in what numbers increase if they’re breeding places are allowed to remain about any premise is.  Mosquitoes lay their eggs in standing water, such as is found in cesspools, drains, open sewers, catch basins, foul street gutters, stable yard pools, tin cans, rain barrels or any object which holds water.  And from a few hours to a day, depending on the temperature in surrounding conditions, the eggs open and what we know and are seen as “wrigglers” come out and can be seen in the water in which the eggs are developed, his tiny slender living bodies 18 inch in length.  In five to seven more days, the “wrigglers” become “tumblers.”  In another five to seven days the covering of the head of the “tumblers” cracks in the fully developed adult winged mosquito comes out and, in the case of the female of the species, flies off ready to annoy and bite.

  This section does provide an interesting glimpse into the evolution of the names and descriptions used for the development stages of mosquitos which can still be seen today.  That said the writer goes into a great level of detail about the places, listing them off.  In the next paragraphs they repeat the litany and focus also on interior locations for mosquitos that almost make you want to go out and hire steam cleaners to visit your home to clean and then dry out your premises.

• The Shin Bone
  
  

  The Shin Bone. -The Tibia or shinbone is also a very large, strong, triangular-shaped bone, enlarged at both ends; the lower end, however where it articulates and forms a hinge joint with the foot, is larger and more prominent than the upper end. And as if this bone was not sufficiently strong enough in itself to bear the weight of the body, our Creator, that boundless wisdom and forethought everywhere in the human frame you see revealed, strengthens the legs by an additional bone, which is seen running on the outer side of the shinbone, to which it is firmly found at both ends.

  That is the Shin Bone and I must say that I will be happy when we get out of the glossary of body parts.  We are approaching diseases and their transmission next which should be a more interesting topic and less likely to make a person want to update cover letters from 10 years ago in their spare time.
