""An Account Of A New Method Of Making Anatomical Preparations: Particularly Those Relating To The Nervous System"" is a book written by Joseph Swan and first published in 1833. The book discusses a new method of preparing anatomical specimens, with a focus on the nervous system. The author explains the traditional methods of preparing specimens and the limitations of those methods. He then introduces his own method, which involves injecting a solution into the blood vessels of the specimen, allowing the solution to harden, and then removing the soft tissue, leaving a hardened cast of the blood vessels. The author also discusses the importance of preserving specimens for study and the benefits of his method for medical education and research. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of medical education and the development of anatomical preparation techniques.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
