Referral Code: JHLONG2 ________________________________________ Atlas of Human Anatomy and Surgery The Complete Plates Jean Baptiste Marc Bourgery Multilingual edition Hardcover 2015 Taschen Books "We owe a great debt to Jean Baptiste Marc Bourgery (1797–1849) for his Atlas of Anatomy, which was not only a massive event in medical history, but also remains one of the most comprehensive and beautifully illustrated anatomical treatises ever published. Bourgery began work on his magnificent atlas in 1830 in cooperation with illustrator Nicolas Henri Jacob (1782–1871), a student of the French painter Jacques Louis David. The first volumes were published the following year, but completion of the treatise required nearly two decades of dedication; Bourgery lived just long enough to finish his labor of love, but the last of the treatise’s eight volumes was not published in its entirety until five years after his death." _________________________________________ Excellent pre-owned condition.
