EDIToirS PREFACE TO THE FIRST EDITION. 



lu„crs, etc. are printed in tlio >aiiu' type as the bones, so as to avoid too great a 



variety of lettering. 



Several of the illustrations are repeated in different parts of the book, Avith 

 the object of sparing the ii-ader the tronble of referring from one section to another 

 when reference is made in the letterpress to snch figures. 



As much uniformity as possible has been observed in the size and general style 

 of the drawings ; but exceptions will be found in the section on Surgical and 

 ToiJoirraphical Anatomy, for which many of the illustrations have been borrowed 

 from another work, published by Messrs. J. and A. Churchill, namely, Bellamy's 

 ' Surgical Anatomy.' 



I have to acknowledge with grateful thanks the assistance I have received 

 from Mr. (tordox Brodie, who made several dissections from which drawings 

 were taken; from Mr. J. Bland Suttox and Mr. Frank Steele in reading 

 over proof-sheets ; from Mr. Burghard for the care Avith which he has drawn 

 up the Index and Tables of Contents ; and from all the artists named on the 

 title-page. 



Mr. Bhr.teau and Mr. Balcomb have drawn a very large proportion of the 

 figures ; and, with Mr. Smit and ^Ir. Parker, have shown a degree of interest 

 in, and given an amount of titue and trouble to the illustrations for which they 

 merit the fullest recognition. 



The beautiful anatomical dissections in the Hunterian Museum which have 

 been, by permission, copied for this Treatise are from the hand of Mr. William 

 Pearson, to whose great skill in dissecting I have much pleasure in referring. 



Too nuich praise cannot be given to all engaged in the actual printing of the 

 book for the painstaking care they have devoted to it; especially to the difficult 

 and precise work of properly 'registering' and printing the coloured illustrations. 



I need only say, in conclusion, that I shall not consider my prolonged and 

 laborious task has been in vain if it be found that the Treatise adequately meets 

 the requirements of Students, for whom it is written.
