APPLIED
Preface
Tin: study of Anatomy is relieved of much of its difficulty when it is approached on the practical side. Isolated details do not appeal to the faculty of interest, but when they are set forth in their natural relationship, and tlieir practical application is pointed out, the mind grasps and recollects them with facility. As Anatomy is the most basic of all the medical sciences, a working knowledge of its data is indispensable for the study and practice of scientific medicine and surgery. The author has endeavored to embody these principles in the present work, and to do it in such a manner as to answer the needs of both students and practitioners.
The plan of the work has been developed from twelve years' experience in teaching Anatomy. The author believes the form of presentation he has followed to be the best for didactic lectures, and that descriptive Anatomy is most advantageously learned from text-books and in the dissecting room. The regional and topographical method of treating Applied Anatomy is likewise the most convenient for clinical purposes.
It is scarcely necessary to state that in order not to exceed the proper limits of a book designed for clinical and didactic purposes a most careful selection had to be made from the vast aggregate of knowledge constituting the modern science of anatomy. If in parts the text may appear quite as much like an anatomical surgery as a surgical anatomy, it is because of the author's belief that this is the best way to complete the study of anatomy and to begin the study of surgery.
The author desires to acknowledge his indebtedness to the excellent words of Joessel, Tillaux, Merkel and others, both for anatomical facts, the methods of their presentation, and for numerous illustrations. An original work on such a subject can no longer be written, nor would it have as much value as a volume duly recognizing the vast fund of information accumulated bv tireless investigators. A single author can only hope to contribute a fair proportion of original knowledge and to present a chosen aspect of the science in a clear and practical manner.
