    v\ PREFACE. greater reliance on the reparative and restorative powers of Nature than is usually acknowledged or acted upon, I shall feel that my efforts have not been in vain. I have much pleasure in expressing my very great obligations to my friend Dr. Daldy for the time and labour he has devoted to assisting me in the construction and arrangement of these Lectures. My best thanks are due to my colleague, Mr. Durham, the Demonstrator of Anatomy at Guy's Hospital, for the valuable series of dissections made by him expressly to illustrate them. I also desire to acknowledge the care and fidelity with which the illustrations have been drawn by Mr. John Tupper and engraved by Mr. Hart.
