"This collection of illustrations depicts the structures of the human body, region by region, in much the same order as the student displays them by dissection."- from Preface by J. E. A.
This book contains hundreds of anatomical images of the human body. It is a reference for students and professionals as well as a beautifully illustrated book. I discovered the execution of these illustrations consisted of a process of photographing the specimens to obtain an enlarged positive film. The outlines of the images then traced on tracing paper with great scrutiny for detail. These outlines were presented to the artist who transferred the images to appropriate paper. The artist then created a plastic drawing in which the important features were brought out.
