| Summary: | "This guide has been published with the idea of economising time and energy of instructor and students, that a more thorough and systematic work may be done in the dissecting room by the dissectors, in the required dissecting periods. This manual is in no way intended to be descriptive or take the place of descriptive texts, but attempts to state briefly and in order the procedure necessary for preservation of time, to dissect intelligently and not destroy structures for further dissection. The writer believes the guide will be found very effective if closely followed. The nomenclature used here is that formulated by the committee on Veterinary Anatomical Nomenclature of America, which likewise is used by Dr. Sisson in his text on Veterinary Anatomy (second edition). All reference page and figure numbers are based on the text, Sisson's Anatomy." - preface.
