LIFE PHENOM ENA AND THEIR METHODS OF INVESTIGATION

Abstract

The inaugural lecture of Dr. Adolf Beck, Professor of Physiology Department of University of Lwow given at the 29th of October 1895* The first year of doctor education in our local department gives you a possibility to study the phenomena that take place in the human organism. The profound knowledge of descriptive anatomy, shape and structure of organs constituting organism is crucial for the understanding of connections between the functions of different organs and the general picture they provide which is called „life“. On the one hand, information obtained from the complementary sciences, especially such disciplines as physics and chemistry will help you, at least partially, understand conditions, rules and actions of life functioning. Equipped with such information, you will proceed to study one of the most important branches of Medical Science, which is the subject of my lectures. A Physiologist is the name nature explorers have born since antiquity. The difference between physiology and physics had not established at that time. Moreover, the meaning of the word “physiology” was coined just in the last century, therefore splitting those two, leaving exploration of inorganic world to physics whereas research of living, organic matters to physiology.
