Lectures On The Physical Phenomena Of Living Beings is a book written by Carlo Matteucci in 1847. The book is a collection of lectures given by the author on the topic of the physical phenomena that occur in living beings. Matteucci was a renowned physicist and physiologist of his time, and his lectures were highly regarded by his contemporaries.The book covers a wide range of topics related to the physical phenomena of living beings, including the electrical properties of muscles and nerves, the mechanics of respiration, the physics of blood circulation, and the properties of the eye and ear. Matteucci also discusses the role of electricity in the functioning of the nervous system and the relationship between electricity and chemical reactions in the body.One of the key themes of the book is the idea that living beings can be studied using the same principles and methods as inanimate objects. Matteucci argues that the laws of physics and chemistry apply equally to living and non-living matter, and that a scientific understanding of the physical phenomena of living beings is essential to understanding life itself.Overall, Lectures On The Physical Phenomena Of Living Beings is a fascinating exploration of the intersection between physics and biology, and a testament to Matteucci's pioneering work in the field of biophysics.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
