AB This volume contains the descriptive anatomy of the peripheral nerves and of the special sense organs. The portion of the book dealing with macroscopic anatomy has been written by Prof. Johnson Symington and the microscopic portion by Professor Schäfer. This edition contains much new matter and a large number of new illustrations, including many original drawings by Prof. Ramon y Cajal. The principal new matter is in the portion devoted to microscopic anatomy, the description of the gross anatomy of the cerebrospinal nerves and their distribution being naturally more conventional. The section devoted to special sense organs is particularly good, especially the chapters on the eye and ear. The plan of issuing the work in small and convenient sections is convenient, especially for students.
