"Although the Renaissance was a reawakening to the value of classical learning, there were some areas, human anatomy among them, in which ancient and classical texts had less to contribute than contemporary studies. Yet Renaissance anatomists clung to the teachings of the past, despite the evidence of their own dissections, for nearly two centuries."--BOOK JACKET. "In Books of the Body, Andrea Carlino explores the nature and causes of this intellectual inertia."--BOOK JACKET.
"A history of both Renaissance anatomists and the bodies they dissected, this book will interest anyone studying Renaissance science, medicine, art, religion, or society."--BOOK JACKET.
