AN 



ANATOMICAL ATLAS 



ILLUSTRATIVE OF THE STKIJCTURE OF THE HUMAN BODY. 



BY HENRY H. SMITH, M.D., 



Felloiv of the College of Physicians, <fT. 

 UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF 



WILLIAM E. HORNER, M.D., 



Professor of Anatomy in the University of Pennsylvania. 



In One la'rge Volume, Imperial Octavo. 



This work is but juel completed, having been delayed over the time intended by the great difficulty in giving 

 to tlie illustrations the desired finish and perfection. It consists of five parts, whose contents are as ibllow*: 



Part I. The Bones and Ligaments, wit'.i one hundred and thirty engravings. 



Pakt II. The Muscular ami Dermoid Systems, with ninety-one engravings. 



Part III. The Organs of Digestion and Generation, with one hundred and ninety-one engravings. 



Part IV. The Organs of Respiration and Circulation, with ninety-eight engravings. 



Pakt V. The Nervous System and tlie Senses, with one hundred and twenty-six engravings. 

 Forming altogether a complete System of Anatomical Plates, of nearly 



SIX HUNDRED AND FIFTY FIGURES, 

 executed in the best style of art, and making one large imperial octavo volume. Tliose who do not want it in 

 parts can have the work bound in extra cloth or sheep at an extra cost. 



This work possesses novelty both in the design and the execution. It is the first attempt to apply engraving 

 on wood, on a large scale, to the illustration of human anatomy, and the beauty of the parts issued induces the 

 publiKhers to llatlor themselves with the hope of the perfect success of their undertaking. The plan of the 

 work IS at once novel and convenient. Each page is perfect in itself, the references being immediately under 

 tlie figures, so that tlie eye takes in the wliole at a glance, and obviates the necessity of continual reference 

 backwards and forwards. The cuts are selected from tlie best and most accurate sources ; and, where neces- 

 sary, original drawings have been made from the admirable Anatomical Collection of the University of Penn 

 sylvania. It embraces all the late beautiful discoveries arising from tlie use of the microscope in the investi- 

 gation of the minute structure of the tissues. 



In the getting up of this very complete work, the publishers have spared neither pains nor expense, and they 

 now present it to ilie profession, with tlie full confidence that it will be deemed all that is wanted in a scientific 

 and ariistical point of view, while, at the same time, its very low price places it within the reach of all. 



It is parUcularly adapted to supply tlie place 0/ skeletons or subjects, as the profession will see by examining the list 

 of plaits 



"These figures are well selected, and present a complete andaecuraterepresentationof that wonderful fabric, 

 the human body. The plan of this Atlas, which renders it so peculiarly convenient for llie student, and its 

 superb ariistical execution, have been already pointed out. We must congratulate the student upon the 

 completion of this atlas, as it is the most convenient work of the kind that has yet appeared ; and, we must 

 add, the very beautiful manner in which it is ' got up' is so creditable to the country as to be flattering to our 

 national pride." — American Medical Journal. 



"This i.s an exciuisite volume, and a beautiful specimen of art. We have numerous Anatomical Atlases, 

 but we will venture to say that none equal it in cheapness, and none surpass it in faithfulness and spirit. We 

 strongly recoiiiniend to our friends, both urban and suburban, the purchase of this excellent work, for which 

 both edilor and publisher deserve the tlianks of the profession." — Medical Examiner. 



"We would strongly recomineud it, not only 10 the student,' but also to the working practitioner, who, 

 although grown rii.sty in the toils of his harness still has the desire, and often the necessity, of retreshing Ms 

 knowledge in this J'undaineutal part of the science of medicine." — Neio York Journal of Medicine and Surg. 



" The plan of this Atlas is admirable, and its execution superior to any thing of the kind before published in 

 this country. It is a real labour-saving affair, and we regard its publication as the greatest boon that could be 

 eonfeiTed on the studenl of anatomy. It will be equally valuable to tlie practitioner, by affording him an easy 

 means of recalling ilie details learned in tlie dissecting room, and which are soon forgotten." — American Medi- 

 cal Journal. 



" It is a beautiful as well as particularly useful design, which should be extensively patronized by physicians, 

 surgeons and medical students." — Boston Med. and Surg. Journal. 



" It hrts been the aim of the author of the Atlas to comprise in it tne valuable points of all previous works, to 

 embrace the latest microscopical observations on the anatomy of the tissues, and by placing it at a moderate 

 price to enalile all to accjuire it who may need its assistance in the dissecting or operating room, or other field 

 of practice." — Western Journal of Med. and Surgery. 



"These numbers cinnplele the series of this beautiful work, which fully merits the praise bestowed upon tlie 

 earlier iiumliers. \Ve regard all the engravings as possessing an accuracy only equalled by tlieir beauty, 

 and cordially recommend the work to all engaged in tlie study of anatomy." — JS'eic York Journal of Medicine 

 and Surgi-rij. 



■' A more elegant work tlian the one before us could not easily be placed by a physician upon the table o( 

 his sindcnt." — Wn^lern Journal tf Mrdirine and Suriferii. 



'• W'e were nnich pleased wiih Part I. but the Second Part gratifies us still more, both as regards the attract- 

 ive iiHtuie of the subject. (The D'-rinoid and Muscular Systems.) and the beautiful ariistical execution of the 

 .Ihisiratioim, We liavc here ilrlincaied the most accurate microscopic views of some of the tissues, as, l"or 

 iii.-iiiince. the cellulnr and ailijiose tissues, the epidermis, rele inucosum and cutis vera, the sebaceous and 

 peis[i;riiiory organs of ilic skin, the perspira'ory glands and hairs of ilio skin, and the hair and nails. Then 

 .'bii;'v\-> liif general iinaloniy of tlie musi'los, and. hislly. their separate (leliiif-atiuiis. We would recommend 

 tlii> Aiuiiomical Atlas 10 our readers in liie very strongest terms." — New Yoik Journal of Medicint and SuT'
