"Leon Schlossberg was an internationally renowned medical illustrator. Chief medical illustrator for the Department of Surgery in the School of Medicine, Schlossberg spent more than 50 years at Hopkins, using his skills to convey pioneering techniques from the university's operating rooms to surgeons around the world. He received his training in the Department of Art as Applied to Medicine, studying under Max Broedel, who brought the field to the United States early in the 20th century. But for a brief stint in the Navy during World War II, Schlossberg served Hopkins faculty and students for the rest of his career.". Signed. Seller Inventory # 2505150035

Unlocking vertebrae and cutting off layers of skin, the numerous color illustrations are anything but pretty, but they capture, with detail rare in introductory works, the interconnecting functions that help the human body survive."--'Los Angeles Times' "The illustrations--most in color--are scientifically accurate and artistically beautiful.The text is uniformly of high quality."--'Science Books and Films' "The artwork is first-class.A book which anyone with an interest in anatomy would be pleased to own."--'Nursing Times' As in previous editions, the description and explanation for each part of the anatomy are written by an expert in that particular field.
