Silappatikaram an epic poetry was written by Ilanko Adikal. Silambu and Context (Athikaram) are combined and becomes Silappatikaram. The story of Silmba (Anklet) is therefore called Silappatikaram. It is called the Citizen's Epic because it was sung by ordinary people like Kovalan and Kannaki. It is the book that makes the life of the people very clear. Individuality, Family, Relative, Community Membership, Citizenship are Physiological Sites and characteristics that human beings need to protect, tasks to perform, and the norms by which an ordinary man can live in everyday life. The integrity of the political life, the rise of femininity, the belief in morality are the high principles of the Tamil people; Silappatikaram explains these. It persuades moral principles through fiction. In this way, it is considered to be the study of the Physiological norms of these People's through dance.

It is by now well known that political attitudes can be affected by emotions. Most earlier studies have focused on emotions generated by some political event (e.g., terrorism or increased immigration). However, the methods used in previous efforts have made it difficult to untangle the various causal pathways that might link emotions to political beliefs. In contrast, we focus on emotions incidental (i.e., irrelevant) to the decision process, allowing us to cleanly trace and estimate the effect of experimentally induced anxiety on political beliefs. Further, we build upon innovative new work that links physiological reactivity (Hatemi, McDermott, Eaves, Kendler, & Neale, 2013; Oxley et al., 2008a) to attitudes by using skin conductance reactivity as a measure of emotional arousal. We found that anxiety—generated by a video stimulus—significantly affected physiological arousal as measured by tonic skin‐conductance levels, and that higher physiological reactivity predicted more anti‐immigration attitudes. We show that physiological reactivity mediated the relationship between anxiety and political attitudes.
This important contribution is the result of decades of theoretical thinking and high-value data collection by the University of Helsinki examining forest ecosystems in great detail. The ecology is dominated by a qualitative approach, e.g. species and vegetation zones, but in contrast quantitative thinking is characteristic in the exact sciences of physics and physiology. The editors have bridged the gap between ecology and the exact sciences with an interdisciplinary and quantitative approach. This book recognizes this discrepancy as a hindrance to fruitful knowledge flow between the disciplines, and that physical and physiological knowledge has been omitted from forest ecology to a great extent. Starting with the importance of mass and energy flows in the interactions between forest ecosystems and their environment, the editors and authors offer a strong contribution to the pioneer H. T. Odum and his work from over 50 years ago.This book introduces a holistic synthesis of carbon and nitrogen fluxes in forest ecosystems from cell to stand level during the lifetime of trees. Metabolism and physical phenomena give rise to concentration, pressure and temperature differences that generate the material and energy fluxes between living organisms and their environment. The editors and authors utilize physiological, physical and anatomical background information to formulate theoretical ideas dealing with the effects of the environment and the state of enzymes, membrane pumps and pigments on metabolism. The emergent properties play an important role in the transitions from detailed to more aggregate levels in the ecosystem. Conservation of mass and energy allow the construction of dynamic models of carbon and nitrogen fluxes and pools at various levels in the hierarchy of forest ecosystems.Testing the predictions of these theories dealing with different phenomena in forest ecosystems was completed using the versatile and extensive data measured at SMEAR I and II (Stations for Measuring Ecosystem Atmosphere Relations) and at six additional stands in Finland, and five stands in Estonia. The theories are able to predict fluxes at different levels in the forest ecosystem gaining strong corroboration in the numerous field tests. Finally, the combined results from different hierarchical levels in the forest ecosystem form the physical and physiological theory of forest ecology.

Citation: Kirk, Clarence Brady. The physiological aspect of education. Senior thesis, Kansas State Agricultural College, 1906. ; Morse Department of Special Collections ; Introduction: It is well known that an educated man can not be educated mentally alone but likewise his physical education must receive careful attention. History reveals the fact that for some time past that the physical education of the people has received far too little attention. Today the American people are fast beginning to realize that the mental training is not the only factor in education to be considered. The laws that govern the health and the development of the body are fast taking a place of first importance, because of the relation existing between the mental and physical development. That the two go hand in hand is shown in the individual but here is not the only place. In the history of nations it is found as well. Ancient Greece was the first of nations to make physical exercises a part of its educational exercises. And so long as these practices were exercised the Greek nation rose intellectually and politically and its people became a people of great physical power. Soon riches caused the people to abandon this mode of education and there physical exercises were forgotten in their luxurious living. Then the progress of the nation ceased, her intellectual power soon began to grow less and politically she degenerated fast until the nation fell. Germany has especially in late years made great advancement both intellectually and politically. The Germans themselves attribute a large share of their advancement due to the physical training which has been introduced into the schools and army of that country. England has for many years been among the leading nations in the advancement of the value of physical training in our schools. Here we find many brilliant men, many more than we do in France where no thought is given to the physical side of the education. In our own country where excellence in intellectual ability is being much sought and attained we find that the people are giving much more attention to the physical side of education than a few years ago.
