Galen Biology and Experiment
Galen and Experimental Methodology • Galen wanted to demonstrate the irreversibility of the flow of urine from the bladder "south". • Virtual Galen • Can we describe this procedure as ‘scientific’ and why?
Does this statement define the standard of true experimentation? • Galen concludes his argument with this very important statement: • "Now if anyone will but test this for himself on an animal, he will condemn the errors [of others] and learn also the [true] reason." • Implications??
