Artikelbeschreibung vom Verkäufer

[nice-looking book, minor wear to the extremities, one-time owner's name at top of front endpaper]. (B&W photographs and diagrams) From the Foreword, by John Osborn Polak: "In the following pages the author illustrates, describes and correlates the development, structures and functions of the human body in such a readable and accurate manner as to be understandable alike by the high-school student and the professonal aspirant who desires to review the fundamentals of the pre-clinical sciences." Per the title page, the book contains "190 original illustrations, mostly from dissections and animated drawings by the author." If you think some of the small illustrations in the book somewhat resemble motion picture film frames, you will not be surprised to learn that Dr. Sarnoff (1886-1961) was a pioneering maker of medical films, who between 1920 and 1924 produced a six-reel set of films with this same title, which was bundled with this book and a set of slides. (The author's Preface explains how the book coordinates with the films, and its text, in fact, is divided into "reels" rather than chapters: "Reel 1 -- the Digestive System," etc. He later produced an even more elaborate set of films: 200 reels depcting 300 opeations, released in 1932 under the title "System of General Surgery in Motion Pictures.").

Shop-Beschreibung

Welcome to ReadInk (rhymes with "Dead Ink"), now in our 29th year of putting interesting books into the hands of interested people. **** Although I occasionally lapse into the "royal we" voice, ReadInk is just me, from one end of the pipeline to the other: buying, cataloging, customer service, shipping, you name it. Nothing here is automated, and every order or inquiry gets my prompt, personal attention. **** In describing a book's physical condition, I employ standard book-grading terminology (Good/Very Good/Fine, with various in-between gradations as appropriate) and do my best to avoid both excessive jargon and overly-finicky detail. My goal is always to present a faithful impression of a book's condition and appearance; significant flaws are individually noted, or if too numerous are succinctly summarized. **** Books are more than just physical objects, however: they are also intellectual/information vessels, and in almost every case I also include some information about a book's content in my listing, even if it's only a carefully chosen quotation from the dust jacket copy. (This may sound like a small thing, but take a look sometime and you'll see how amazingly few sellers bother with this, especially in the case of older fiction, which is one of my specialties.) **** I take great care (and pride) in my packaging of books for shipment; I figure it's my responsibility to ensure that each book I send out will withstand the rigors of the U.S. Postal System, and will reach its new owner in the same condition as advertised. (A sturdy box or an unbendable package is always involved.) **** That's all there is to ReadInk: just a guy who has loved books all my life (perhaps to excess) and entered the trade in my "middle years" to see what I could make of it. And I'm still finding out. **** To view my inventory exclusively, head over to my website -- www.readinkbooks.com. ---- Howard Prouty, prop.
