Condition: Very Good. We owe a great debt to Jean Baptiste Marc Bourgery (1797-1849) for his Atlas of Anatomy, which was not only a massive event in medical history, but also remains one of the most comprehensive and beautifully illustrated anatomical treatises ever published. Bourgery began work on his magnificent atlas in 1830 in cooperation with illustrator Nicolas Henri Jacob (1782-1871), a student of the French painter Jacques Louis David. The first volumes were published the following year, but completion of the treatise required nearly two decades of dedication; Bourgery lived just long enough to finish his labor of love, but the last of the treatise's eight volumes was not published in its entirety until five years after his death. The eight volumes of Bourgery's treatise cover descriptive anatomy, surgical anatomy and techniques (exploring in detail nearly all the major operations that were performed during the first half of the 19th century), general anatomy and embryology, and microscopic anatomy. Jacob's spectacular hand-colored, life-size lithographs are remarkable for their clarity, color, and aesthetic appeal, reflecting a combination of direct laboratory observation and illustrative research. Unsurpassed to this day, the images offer exceptional anatomical insight, not only for those in the medical field but also for artists, students, and anyone interested in the workings and wonder of the human body.--.

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Wir haben Jean Baptiste Marc Bourgery (1797-1849) viel zu verdanken, denn sein Atlas d'anatomie humaine schrieb nicht nur Medizingeschichte, sondern ist bis heute eine der umfassendsten und aufwendig illustrierten Abhandlungen über Anatomie, die je veröffentlicht wurden. Bourgery begann die Arbeit an dem prächtigen Atlas im Jahr 1830 in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Illustrator Nicolas Henri Jacob (1782-1871), einem Schüler von Jacques Louis David. Die ersten Bände erschienen bereits im darauffolgenden Jahr, doch die endgültige Fertigstellung des Werks gelang erst nach zwei hingebungsvollen Jahrzehnten. Bourgery lebte gerade lang genug, um sein Lebenswerk noch abzuschließen, der letzte der insgesamt acht Bände erschien jedoch erst fünf Jahre nach seinem Tod vollständig. Die acht Bände von Bourgerys Werk decken die Bereiche beschreibende Anatomie, chirurgische Anatomie und Techniken (mit detaillierter Schilderung aller gängigen Operationen, die in der ersten Hälfte des 19. Jahrhunderts durchgeführt wurden), allgemeine Anatomie und Embryologie sowie mikroskopische Anatomie ab. Jacobs spektakuläre, handkolorierte Lithografien bestechen durch ihre Klarheit, Farbgebung und Ästhetik. In ihnen spiegelt sich eine Kombination aus unmittelbaren Beobachtungen im Labor und Recherche auf dem Gebiet der medizinischen Illustration wider. Die einzigartigen Bilder bieten einen erstaunlichen Einblick in die menschliche Anatomie und dürften nicht nur Leser aus medizinischen Berufen faszinieren, sondern auch Künstler, Studenten und all diejenigen, die sich für die wundersame Wirkungsweise und Beschaffenheit unseres Körpers interessieren.; Mehrsprachige Ausgabe 832 pp. Englisch, Französisch, Deutsch.
