The anatomy of human bodies epitomiz'd : wherein all the parts of man's body, with their actions and uses, are succinctly describ'd, according to the newest doctrine of the most accurate and learned modern anatomists
A 1688 London anatomy textbook by Thomas Gibson, printed for A. Churchill, aimed at students and practitioners wanting a concise account of the body's parts and their functions. The pictures are copperplate-style engravings with hatched shading of abdominal viscera, organs and vessels, with lettered keys pointing to each structure, offering designers a model of old scientific diagramming with labelled callouts and fine line detail.
