A Latin anatomy compendium by Frank Nicholls, printed in London in 1733 for students at Oxford, covering bodily economy, midwifery lectures, drug action and causes of death. The plates are sparse engraved diagrams rather than dissections: outlined blood vessels with numeric ratios, a sectioned eyeball with lens hatching, schematic heart-and-circulation charts, and triangular figures carrying handwritten Latin captions and letter keys.
