"The central propos…ition of this book is that the great anatomists of the Renaissance, from Vesalius to Fabricius and Harvey.consciously resurrected not merely the methods but also the research projects of Aristotle and other ancients. The moderns' choice of topics and subjects, their aims, their evaluation of their investigations were all made in a spirit of emulation, not rejection of their distant predecessors. It will provoke a radical reappraisal of the intellectual roots of the Renaissance as well as iluminating the current debate on the history of the body and its images." ; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 283 pages.
