nite credit on the talent, industry, and perseverance of the author; and, in our opinion, it appears in every respect calculated to assist the study of that branch of science on which it treats. We can safely recommend it to the practitioner in the country, as likely to be of great practical utility in keeping up or refreshing his knowledge of the anatomical structure of the human frame. To the pupil, it will lay a foundation for his future studies; prepare and assist, in a great measure, his labours in the dissecting room; and to the non-professional man of science, its perusal will afford much pleasure and satisfaction.
