Historical Anatomies on the Web
This week I
thought I play far afield from my usual subject areas by exploring the image
database for the National Library of Medicine, History of Medicine Division. This database--Historical Anatomies on the Web--showcases many
high-quality digital images of the NLM’s collection of illustrated anatomical
atlases dating from the 15th to the 20th century. The quality of the images, the detailed
historical introductions to each anatomical atlas, and the descriptions of the
illustration techniques all contribute to the immense pedagogical potential of
this collection.
