Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Thesis on the Cataract: A With Some Remarks on the Eye
The eye is the most perfect object in Nature and, as per fection and order constitute beauty, it is also the most beautiful. Within the narrow limits of its orbit, may be found illustrated nearly all the grand physiological phenomena of the animal system. With the exception of the functions of respiration, di gestion, and ideality, there are none, I believe, of the great processes of animal nature, which are not discoverable in the eye and manifested there in the utmost perfection.
