Excerpt from The Story of the Living Machine: A Review of the Conclusions of Modern Biology in Regard to the Mechanism Which Controls the Phenomena of Living Activity Biology 3. New Science. - In recent years biol ogy has been spoken of as a new science. Thirty years ago departments of biology were practically, unknown in educational institutions. To-day none of our higher institutions of learning considers itself equipped without such a department. This seems to be somewhat strange. Biology is sim ply the study oi living things; and living nature has been studied as long as mankind has studied anything. Even Aristotle, four hundred years be fore Christ, classified living things. From this foundation down through the centuries living phe nomena have received constant attention. Recent centuries have paid more attention to living things than to any other objects in nature. Linnaeus erected his systems of classification before modern chemistry came into existence; the systematic study of zoology antedated that of physics; and long before geology had been conceived in its modern form, the animal and vegetable kingdoms had been comprehended in a scientific system. How, then, can biology be called a new science when it is older than all the others? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
