Medical Physics - Ibutsu

Japanese: 医物理派 - いぶつりは
Medical Physics - Ibutsu

The medical sciences are based on the idea that medicine should be based on the principles of chemistry, and the medical sciences are based on the principles of chemistry.

From [Mechanics]

...In medicine, chemical treatment was also a powerful idea (Iatrochemiker), but by the end of the 17th century, a mechanistic view of the body that saw the heart as a pump, the lungs as a bellows, the stomach as a grinder, and the arms as a crane had become largely established. This position was called the Iatrophysiker, but the word physica, which originally meant "natural science" in general, was thereafter limited to "mechanical natural science," or "physics." Mechanism gave rise to social physics, which treated society from this perspective, and also gave rise to the view of the state, such as Hobbes', which modeled humans as automata.

*Some of the terminology that refers to the "medical physics school" is listed below.

【機械論】より

…医学においては化学的な扱いも有力な思想としてあった(医化学派Iatrochemiker)が,17世紀末には,心臓をポンプ,肺をフイゴ,胃を摩砕機,腕を起重機と見る機械論的身体観がほぼ成立した。このような立場は〈医物理派Iatrophysiker〉と呼ばれたが,本来は〈自然学〉一般を意味していたphysicaの語がそれ以後は〈機械論的自然学〉つまり〈物理学〉に限定されるようになったのである。機械論は社会をもこの立場で扱う社会物理学をもたらし,自動機械としての人間をモデルとするホッブズのような国家観も生み出した。…
