« Dr. Johnson has defined a big book to be a big evil — the author, therefore, of the few following pages bearing in mind this remark, has attempted to condense as much matter in as small a space as possible, and by this means, the exemplification of the motto " multum in parvo." In preparing the first chapter, which considers the Physiology of Muscular Tissue, he has consulted and freely collected from Kölliker’s Manual of Histology , and Dr. Quain’s Anatomy , edited by Dr. Sharpey and Mr. Ellis. He is also pleased to acknowledge the assistance he has received, in constructing the second chapter, from notes taken during attendance at lectures delivered by Professors Spooner, Varnell, and Dr. Monastier, aud to state that the engravings have been carefully selected from Chauveau’s work on the Anatomy of the Domestic Animals . The work is written for the use of students; for whom, in the present instance, the author sincerely trusts he has not laboured in vain. » Présentation de l’éditeur (1862)
