Henry Gray’s Anatomy – Surgical and Descriptive

 

A scientific and artistic triumph, Gray’s Anatomy is one of the most iconic anatomical texts ever to be printed. Rediscover the original 1858 text and illustrations republished in this stunning tribute to the renowned work.

One of the most distinguished texts on medical anatomy, the thoroughly illustrated pages of Gray’s Anatomy have provided generations of readers with an invaluable reference to the human form. The volume was originally produced in 1858 by two young medical professionals, Henry Gray and Henry Vandyke Carter, as an accessible manual for medical students. Over the past two centuries, its practical approach to the subject has proved essential in the teachings of physiology, establishing a legacy like no other.

A must-have for medical students and artists alike, this latest addition to the Art Meets Science Collection features the original text and illustrations from the first edition in 1858. This edition breathes new life into the early work while preserving the charm of this beloved classic of human anatomy.

Reviews:

“Elegant in exterior… profusely as well as beautifully illustrated… embodying in its pages the scattered facts and floating fragments of knowledge which find their way into periodical literature, shall accredit every man with what justly belongs to him.” — The Medical and Surgical Journal, 1859

“The matchless book of the doctor’s or surgeon’s library is and has been Gray’s Anatomy… it has held the leading place in all the colleges… and has been the one central figure in the many text-books in anatomy that have claimed attention.” — Kan. City Medical Index, 1896

“No medical student is, in our opinion, well equipped without a Gray’s Anatomy.” — Pittsburg Medical Review, 1896

“Nothing but the highest praise can be extended in favour of this work, and continued success is only to be expected of a book which still stands at the pinnacle of anatomical works” — The St. Louis Clinique, 1896
