"Cadavers, camera, action!" ("The New York Times Book Review").
From the advent of photography in the 19th and into the 20th
century, medical students, often in secrecy, took photographs of
themselves with the cadavers that they dissected: their first
patients. Featuring 138 of these historic photographs and
illuminating essays by two experts on the subject, "Dissection"
reveals a startling piece of American history. Sherwin Nuland, MD,
said this is "a truly unique and important book [that] documents a
period in medical education in a way that is matched by no other
existing contribution." And Mary Roach said Dissection "is the most
extraordinary book I have ever seen--the perfect coffee table book
for all the households where I'd most like to be invited for
coffee."
