The Unabridged Running Press Edition
of the American Classic
No longer need you search through second-hand bookstores for
a scarce, used copy of this grandfather of all anatomy books. It is here in
this unabridged facsimile of the 1901 edition - with a full 1,257 pages and 827
illustrations.
"A major publishing event. The Anatomy is a classic
work written by Henry Gray, Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons and
Lecturer on Anatomy at St. George's. First published in 1901, the volume
thoroughly exhausts its subject, treating every aspect of the human body from
the structure of the brain to the formation of the embryo.
"Gray's descriptions are clear and easy for laymen to
understand, and the many illustrations are detailed and fascinating. Essential
not only for medical students and professionals but also for painters,
sculptors, or anyone interested in coming to know his own body and its
structure."
