How I wish I could visit the Science Museum of London to see these incredible wax anatomical figures, originally created circa 1810-1830.

It’s curious how the females head is half exposed but the gentleman’s hat is in tact.
Even in the sleep of the grave, a Victorian gentleman could never remove his hat. I’m just glad these figures don’t date from the era of codpieces.
Ha! Very good point.

Review by for Rating: Help! This book made me into the class know it all . I’m in school sattring my second career and I need to know anatomy. I was suppose to learn it for my first career but it never stuck. After reading Dr. Dimon’s book I’m finding I know more than I thought I could know and it has been so easy. I’m begining to understand the intelligence of our design and the names of all the bones and muscles just flow out or me, (and I haven’t even made an effort to memorized them).
Reminds me of Jason Freeny’s stuff.
