"While the author has prepared this work especially for students, sufficient 

 descriptive matter has been added to render it extremely valuable to the busy 

 practitioner, particularly the sections on the Viscera, Special Senses, and Sur- 

 gical Anatomy. 



The work includes a complete account of Osteology, Articulations and 

 Ligaments, !Muscles, Fascias, Vascular and JSTervous Systems, Alimentary, Vocal, 

 and Respiratory and Genito-Urinary Apparatus, the Organs of Special Sense, 

 and Surgical Anatomy. 



In addition to a most carefully and accurately prepared text, wherever 

 possible, the value of the work has been enhanced by tables to focilitate and 

 minimize the labor of students in acquiring a thorough knowledge of this 

 important subject. The section on the teeth has also been especially prepared 

 to meet the requirements of students of dentistry.
