Item description from seller

nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Enter the anatomy room of Victorian Britain, where knowledge is earned by close attention and steady hands. A cadaver teaches without mercy. In Practical Dissections, Richard M. Hodges sets out a disciplined route through human body anatomy, guiding the reader from surface landmarks to the deeper structures that defined nineteenth century medicine.Part anatomy dissection manual and part medical anatomy textbook, this anatomical laboratory guide is valued for its plain-spoken direction: what to find, how to expose it, and why it matters. It brings cadaver dissection techniques into sharp focus while keeping surgical anatomy fundamentals in view, making it equally compelling as a medical students study guide and as an enduring surgical anatomy reference. Read alongside the era's classics, it works naturally as a Gray's Anatomy companion, illuminating how Victorian medical education trained eyes, hands, and judgement in the lab. Its measured prose captures the transition from bedside apprenticeship to systematic laboratory science, a moment when anatomy became the language of surgery and the map for new hospitals across the Atlantic.Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions, this heritage work has been restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint -- a collector's item and a cultural treasure -- it offers historians, anatomy lab instructors, and curious general readers a vivid window into the craft, language, and priorities of nineteenth century medicine. For collectors of classic medical writing, it is a handsome reminder that precision and wonder can share the same page.…
