Excerpt from An Experimental Inquiry Into the Function of the Liver: Both in the Foetus and Adult; In Which the Most Popular Doctrines Respecting the Function of This Organ Are Examined, and That of Dr. Rush Adopted and Vindicated, Also, an Experimental Inquiry Into the Function of the Spleen, Gall Bladder, Pancresa, Thyro The human body being a machine so infinitely complicated, that, although its anatomy, so far as the eye or glass can reach appears to be under stood, a part Of its physiology, or function of its various organs is still enveloped in profound dark ness. If this knowledge is within the reach of hu man understanding, the reason why it is inexplica ble, may be justly ascribed to the superstition which has pervaded all nations, till lately, respect ing the cultivation of anatomy and physiology by dissection. Indeed, so great was the abhorrence to this only method Of obtaining a knowledge of the laws of organic life, that martyrs to humanity have fallen, in daring to attemptit. And it is to be regretted that this black superstition still exists in many parts of this enlightened republic. But as true science and philosophy progressed, supersti tion was gradually stript Of its tyranny, and ana tomy and physiology began to flourish.
