SynopsisThe study of ANATOMYas it leads to the knowledge of nature and the art of healing, needs not many tedious descriptions nor minute dissections; what is most worth knowing is soonest learned, and least the subject of disputes. This edition is a tenth part larger than the former, not increased by descriptions but by observations upon the uses and the mechanism of the parts, with operations and cases in surgery. The plates are more in number, larger, better designed, and better executed than those which were in the former editions. The print in the title page represents a person drawing in a camera obscura. The frontispiece represents the story of Hippocrates going to cure Democrates of madness, but finding him dissecting, to discover the seat of the Bile, he pronounced him the wisest man in Abdera. In this edition, some observations and cases in surgery, with prints of operations and a set of surgical instruments are published.
