There appears to be no article on "body" in the sense of the part of an essay or paper between the introduction and conclusion. Any suggestions on the article name for that sort of "body", or should it be put in this name too? So ... are you saying that single-cell plants *do* have a body ? Or did you really mean to say

"Plants are not normally regarded as having a body."


Should we say something here about whether boulders are normally regarded as having a body ?

Body (metaphysics)

I think there should be a disambiguation page for Body since there is a page Body (metaphysics) just as there is such a page for Extension


Great idea! I'll take care of that for you. Next time you could drop by the disambiguation project, and someone there will help you out.

I am going to make Body (disambiguation). I will leave the information about animal bodies at body.--Commander Keane 04:33, 25 November 2005 (UTC)

Apols for putting this here - but last sentence of second paragraph on "Bodies" reads: "...and dead viruses are called ghosts".

This is very misleading given the context (and I can find no evidence to siggest that the correct term for a "dead virus" is a "ghost".

anatomy and physiology

The study of the working of a body is anatomy.

I thought this was physiology (emphasis on working). Am I wrong? Maybe someone who knows should explain what physiology is here. --대조 | Talk 19:43, 30 November 2005 (UTC)

Use of "guys"/clarification

"It is beneficial to keep the balance of good guys greater than their opponents."

This seems to be a rather colloquial way of writing, as compared to the rest of the article. In addition, I'm not exactly sure what it means. Does this mean something along the lines of "It is beneficial to keep the number of good microbes in the (human) body greater than that of bad microbes"? Someone with more knowledge on the matter should clarify and state the idea behind this sentence in a more formal manner, in my opinion.

body

Meaningless sentence

Apols for putting this here - but last sentence of second paragraph on "Bodies" reads: "...and dead viruses are called ghosts".

This is very misleading given the context (and I can find no evidence to siggest that the correct term for a "dead virus" is a "ghost".

I'll removed it until it's verified.--Planetary 08:50, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Materialism

The body shouldn't be defined in contrast to the soul or personality since that is a religious view point. The body should be defined independent of wether the soul is a part of the body or not. Materialist philosophy and holistic wievs see the soul and body as one. Biology of the brain and the chemical hormones of the body also indicate that the "soul" is a part of the body. Phenomenas such as ghost arms or motor memories in the spinal cord should also be considered. Additionally both modern religious persons and atheist are often toning down the difference between the mind and the body.

There should be an article about the many different cultural and philosophical views on the body and how those have progressed through world history. The contrast of body and mind should be a minor optiional example of one view on the body. Another example should be how the body are portrayed in literature such as frankenstain or the archetypical robot and the 13th century imagery of death.

Also we need anatomical principes for art, like the measurements of body parts for the purpose of drawing and painting.

should have more pics

add pics!!!

Merge with disambiguation page

This article is of poor quality and doesn't really have any redeeming values. It only suffices to make the process of finding the correct article longer. CFCF (talk) 21:26, 16 November 2013 (UTC)

CFCF, considering that this is a WP:Broad-concept article and Body (disambiguation) is a disambiguation page, I don't understand your proposal to merge this into Body (disambiguation). I understand your feeling that this article is a waste of space and should validly be merged with something, however.
I'll alert WP:Anatomy and WP:Med to this discussion. Flyer22 (talk) 00:51, 17 November 2013 (UTC)
