On some questions of the theory of the human body

Abstract

The subject of medical science is human health. Health is a property of the body. This can only be understood within the framework of a theoretical model. To date, such models do not exist; one of the attempts to create it was the theory of functional systems by P.K. Anokhin, however, it was not completed. At the same time, there are no theoretical models of simpler organisms than humans. Moreover, there is no methodology for creating such models. Empirical approaches implemented in private medical sciences, such as physiology, anatomy, cytology, etc., can in no way become the basis for the formation of a theoretical model of the body, without which understanding health is impossible. This article proposes a framework for developing a model of the human body.
