THE GREAT ATLAS OF SURGICAL ANATOMY. 



(NOW COMPLETE.) 



SURGIOAI.~A]Sr ATOMY, 



BY JOSEPH MACLISE, SURGEON. 



IN ONE VOLUME, IN VERY LARGE IMPERIAL QUARTO, 



With Sixty-eight large and splendid Plates, drawn in the toest style, and 



beautifully colored, 



Containing one hundred and ninety Figures, many of them the size of life, 



TOGETHER WITH COPIOUS EXPLANATORY LETTER-PRESS. 



Strongly and handsomely bound, being one of the best executed and cheapest surgical works ever 



presented in this country. 



This great work being now complete, the publishers confidently present it to the attention of the 

 profession as worthy in every respect of their approbation and patronage. No complete work 

 of the kind has yet been published in the English language, and it therefore will supply a want 

 long felt in this country of an accurate and comprehensive Atlas of Surgical Anatomy to which 

 the student and practitioner can at all times refer, to ascertain the exact relative position of 

 the various portions of the human frame towards each other and to the surface, as well as their 

 abnormal deviations. The importance of such a work to the student in the absence of anato- 

 mical material, and to the practitioner when about attempting an operation, is evident, while the 

 price of the book, notwithstanding the large size, beauty, and finish of the very numerous illustra- 

 tions is so low as to place it within the reach of every member of the profession. The publishers 

 therefore confidently anticipate a very extended circulation for this magnificent work. 



To present some idea of the scope of the volume, and of the manner in which its plan has been 

 carried out, the publishers subjoin a very brief summary of the plates.
