Item description from seller

xxcii, [1], 435, [3] pages. One of 300 facsimile copies of the edition published in New York in 1945. Includes Author's Preface, Translator's Preface; Memorial Notice: Mortimer Frank (1874-1919); Abbreviations of Authorities Cited; Bibliography of Dr. Mortimer Frank. Also includes Life of Johann Ludwig Choulant; Historical Introduction; Anatomic Illustrations of Antiquity and of the Middle Ages; Works on Artistic Anatomy; Description of Illustrations; and Index. Johann Ludwig Choulant (12 November 1791 - 18 July 1861) was a German physician and medical historian born in Dresden. He studied medicine at the Collegium Medico-chirurgicum in Dresden and at the University of Leipzig, followed by work in 1817 as a physician/obstetrician in Altenburg. During the same year he joined the staff at the Medizinischen Realwörterbuch of Johann Friedrich Pierer (1767-1832). In 1821 he was a physician at the Königlichen Katholischen Krankenstift in Dresden-Friedrichstadt. In 1822 he began work as a lecturer at the Königlich Chirurgisch-Medizinische Akademie (Royal Surgical-Medical Academy) in Dresden, where during the following year he became a professor of theoretical medicine. In 1828 he became a professor of practical medicine, and from 1843 to 1860 was rector of the Royal Surgical-Medical Academy. From 1844 onward, he served as medical officer in the Saxon Ministry of the Interior. In addition to his work involving the literary history of medicine, Choulant made many contributions to the Saxon Medizinalordnung (medical code). Ludwig Choulant was not only one of the greatest of medical bibliographers and historians, but was, like Haeser, Baas, and Sudhoff, an active practitioner and hygienist, the author of a work on internal medicine (1831), which passed through six editions and was translated; an authority on anthropology and craniology, and an expert in forensic medicine and medical policy, in which fields he rendered many learned and valuable reports. In this classical work Choulant traced the evolution of anatomical illustration from the early schematic plates up to his own time, including a valuable bibliography. This English edition, translated by Frank, is enriched by the chapter on anatomical illustration since Choulant, by Garrison. Reprint Edition, Strictly limited to 300 copies.
