    PREFACE OF THE AMERICAN EDITION. In presenting the work of Mr. Tuson to those commencing the labors of practical Anatomy, the Editor has thought that the way would be rendered less intri- cate by the simplified descriptions, accompanied by the diagrams, which are given in this publication.—Mr. Tuson is reputably known as a skilful teacher of Anatomy, and as the Author of a work on Myology, the most ingenious ever given to the public. He is a competent judge of what is wanted in the dissecting rooms, and has endeavoured to supply the deficiency by this work. The diagrams do not profess to show the exact appearance of the several parts, but are done in a rouo-h outline, to convey to the mind of the student their relative positions and connexions. W. L., Jr.
