Overview

Excerpt from A Description of the Bones: Together With Their Several Connexions With Each Other, and With the Muscles; Specially Adapted for Students in Anatomy IN presenting to the Profession a Third Edition of this little Work, I trust that its altered form will tend considerably to improve its usefulness. The employment of pictorial illustration as auxiliary to descriptive Anatomy, is now so general, and the increased facility it affords to the Student so fully admitted, that I feel no apology necessary for the introduction of Wood-cuts as explanatory of the text. It is not intended to compete with the mag nificent Osteogmphia of Cheselden, which must ever be considered one of the finest specimens of engraving and anatomical fidelity; but the great value and rarity of that noble work remove it beyond the reach of most persons, and its large size would, even if it were easily procured, render it inconvenient for constant reference.
