What is the matter with man March Phillips notes
March Phillips discusses how human life spans are shorter than would be expected from growth ratios in other mammals. He argues that man ages faster, with full growth around 20, and lifespans that resemble shorter dynamics like lions, suggesting a primal failure of vigor due to nonnatural disease. Prof Virchow supports the view by comparing fossil and current populations, noting more inferior types among living men.
