Excerpt from Handbook of Surgical Anatomy
Our idea in this small book was to bring together in convenient form, certain anatomical facts, and directly suggest for each a surgical association.
There is of course nothing original in such a book, which is meant to give juniors a selection of some of the more important points in surgical anatomy. As all anatomy is in a sense surgical and medical too, a selection has necessarily to be made. Dental anatomy has received fuller treatment than is usual in books of this size, because in Manchester, medical and dental students receive much of their instruction together, and it is thought that so much dental knowledge as is here presented cannot but be useful to medical practitioners.
Those students, who will read the larger books, will wisely study Treves, and refer to Deaver, and will, we hope, read and read again that best of all books on "applied anatomy," Hilton's Rest and Pain.
We desire to fully acknowledge our indebtedness to various authors, and our own special obligations to H. H. Broome, now of His Majesty's I.M.S., and formerly senior demonstrator of Anatomy at the Owens College, for going through and checking our statements of anatomical facts.
To our Publishers also, we owe our thanks.
If the book is any help to the students of the Manchester School of Medicine it will have done all we want.
