This deluxe gift edition of Gray's Anatomy is presented with gilded page edges, patterned endpapers and original illustrations by Henry Carter.
Gray's Anatomy is
widely considered to be the 'Bible' of the human body. First published
in 1858, this book has been repeatedly reprinted and remains a national
and international treasure.
Including accessible and instructive
information on the muscles, organs, bones and more, this useful
reference book is perfect for medical practitioners, students or anyone
with an interest in the history of medicine or in the amazingly complex
machine that is the human body. This edition contains the first
extensive sections on Osteology, the Articulations, Muscles and Fasciae,
the Arteries and the Lymphatics.
This handsome hardback with
cloth-effect cover comprises an abridged version of the classic text
which makes it readily digestible. Featuring the masterly woodblock
illustrations by Henry Carter that made the original book a runaway
success, this edition makes a wonderful gift.
