Moleschott, Jakob

    0.01 sec.

Moleschott, Jakob (1822-1893)

Dutch physiologist and metaphysician. He denied any vital principle, regarded life as metabolism between the organic and inorganic worlds, and enclosed his materialism in the formula ‘Without matter no force; without force no matter’.

He held the chair of physiology successively at Zürich, Turin, and Rome. His views were developed in Der Kreislauf des Lebens (1852). Among his numerous scientific treatises was a Natural History of Man and Animals (1855).
