Excerpt from A Textbook of Anatomy for Nurses: With Thirty-Four Original Illustrations, Five of Which Are in Colors I have written this book because I have found the existing textbooks on the subject unsatisfactory. I believe pupil nurses should be shown the various tissues and organs of the body and that this work should be done before they enter hospitals for their professional training. This can be readily accomplished if the medical colleges will offer a brief, practical course in anatomy during the vacation. Such a course should occupy not more than three or four weeks. From two to three hours a day of laboratory instruction, using prepared dissections, might be profitably employed. I fear that I may have made the book too elaborate, but teachers can readily omit descriptions given in too much detail. The illustrations have been drawn by Miss Helen Lorraine from specially prepared dissections, and appear to me exceptionally well done. They are in many instances designedly diagrammatic.
