Human Anatomy And Rabbit Dissection

This full-color guide is designed to provide an introduction to the anatomy of the rabbit for biology, zoology, nursing, or pre-professional students taking an introductory laboratory course in biology, zoology, anatomy and physiology, or basic vertebrate anatomy. The rabbit is an excellent alternative to other specimens for these courses.

An illustrated manual of the anatomy and dissection of rabbits.

Excerpt from Principles of Functional Anatomy of the Rabbit This elementary work on dissection of the rabbit was pre pared to meet the needs of laboratory courses in mammalian anatomy designed for students who Wish to obtain a background for advanced human physiology, for those majoring in physical education and for premedical and other students who wish to learn the technique of mammalian dissection and the basic principles of descriptive and functional anatomy. An effort has been made to keep the subject matter down to such a point that the entire outline may be covered in one hundred, or less, laboratory hours. In teaching mammalian anatomy the writer finds that the most nearly ideal method is that employed by Professor J. Percy Moore, in the University of Pennsylvania who discourages the student from committing the descriptions to memory, with the idea of reciting them by rote, and stimulates him to learn anatomy from the functional, rather than the purely descriptive point of view. The student is required to be able to demonstrate on his specimen and explain the relations and functions of structures at any time the laboratory instructor may make such requests and at written examinations. The method of using the consecutive numbers of muscles, arteries, and nerves in the descriptions and cross references is an elaboration of a similar system employed in mimeographed outlines for dissecting the cat, at the University of Pennsylvania.
