Excerpt from Manual of Practical Anatomy, Vol. 1
The present edition differs from those which have preceded it in two important respects. Some of the plans of dissection have been changed and the Basle anatomical nomenclature has been adopted throughout.
In Vol. I. The plans of dissection which have been either entirely altered or greatly modified are those dealing with the dissections of the axilla, the abdomen and the pelvis, and the changes have been made with the object of bringing the methods of dissection more into line with the necessities of present-day operative procedure, that is, with the object of displaying the parts in a sequence which shall be introductory to the study of the anatomical details of clinical diagnosis and operative work.
All the dissections described have been performed repeatedly and successfully, in the dissecting-rooms of the University of Edinburgh, by students dissecting the parts for the first time; and the new figures illustrating the various stages of the dissection of the abdomen have been drawn from dissections made by students preparing, in the ordinary way, for their professional examination in anatomy.
