“As the dissection proceeds, the knowledge acquired region by region, should be associated in the mind of the dissector so that he will eventually see the body as a whole, and be able to reproduce his knowledge in systematic form, even though, for example, he may never actually have seen the entire arterial system, or the entire nervous system, at one time.”
Shearer’s illustrated dissecting manual published to be a supplement to the standard medical school textbooks.
