Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Compend of Human Anatomy: Including the Anatomy of the Viscera
His book contains the complete text of my two Compends of Anatomy, namely - the Human Anatomy, and the Visceral Anatomy, heretofore published as separate volumes in this series of students' manuals. The marked favor with which these Compends were first received, some three and a half years ago, has since been continuously extended to them by teachers and students, both in America and in England. This has been manifested by the sale of a new and large edition every year, and has been extremely gratifying to the author. Upon the exhaustion of the third edition, the publishers resolved to acknowledge the universal appreciation shown these books, by incorporating the two in one volume; making this, the first of the now well-known quiz-compends, a complete quiz-book on Human Anatomy. In carrying out this generous resolution, the original matter has not been curtailed anywhere; but, on the contrary, much new matter has been introduced wherever greater detail seemed to be desirable, and the number of the illustrations has been increased by eighteen new cuts.
