Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Text-Book of Domestic Economy: Complete, Adapted for Use in Training Colleges, Training and as a Domestic Book of Health a Domestic Book of Health
The general scope and arrangement of the instruction contained in this text-book on Domestic Economy are founded upon experience gained by the author in deliver ing annually a course of lectures on the subject at the Edge Hill Training College, Liverpool, the outline of which was originally suggested by Mr. Samuel Greg Rathbone, for many years the Chairman of the Liverpool School Board. It is hoped that the book may prove useful to other Training Colleges, as well as to High Schools, Elementary Schools, Nursing Institutions, and to housewives generally.
The section on Physiology, with which the subject is introduced, pretends only to give a very short and elementary sketch, the object being rather to convey a general conception of the structure and working of the human body, than to teach the details of any part of it.
