Synopsis
Excerpt from A Treatise on Special and General Anatomy, Vol. 1 of 2
The present edition has also the advantage of additional illustrations from the best authorities, through numerous figures inserted upon its pages: and it is placed in a more immediate relation with the volume of Plates, by Dr. H. H. Smith, called Anatomical Atlas; they having been selected expressly as an elucidation of its text. This connection has been done by specific references at the foot of the page to the Plates in question.
That all has been said which belongs to the science of Anatomy, no one fully acquainted with the subject will admit: but the Author trusts that no well-established fact of leading importance has been omitted; and that a sufficient expansion has been given to the subject to realize the principal object, that of furnishing an elementary Text Book for the use of students of Medicine.
