Synopsis
A Description Of The Human Body: Its Structure And Functions: Illustrated By Nine Physiological Diagrams, Containing 193 Coloured Figures. 2 Voll. II — John Marshall — is a nineteenth-century illustrated manual designed for teachers and the general public. It aims to convey the body’s structure and functions through topographical descriptions and nine coloured diagrams, drawing on established anatomical plates (notably Bourgery-Jacob) to make accurate knowledge accessible beyond medical schools. The work is didactic and plate-backed, emphasizing clarity of visuals, precise anatomical terminology, and practical demonstrations using preserved specimens and live demonstrations to aid instruction. Its organization opens with Part 1, outlining foundational topics: The Skeleton and Ligaments; The Muscles, Joints, and Animal Mechanics; The Visera in Position: The Structure of the Lungs; The Organs of the Circulation, with discussion of joints, levers, respiration, and the double circulation in air-breathing vertebrates. Across sections, the text advocates a mechanical, comparative view of anatomy and a strong educational emphasis on visuals and accessibility.
