The Structure of the Human Body |

|||||
| Flemish Vesalius published The Structure of the Human Body
in 1543, the most accurate and complete guide to the human body. Previously
used were the studies by Galen, from 200 AD, which were riddled with inaccuracies.
Later William Harvey published On the Movement of the Heart and Blood, which
revolutionized the idea of how blood was used in the body. |
