Description
A DELUXE ATLAS OF PHYSICAL ANTHROPOLOGY: 100 PLATES OF LIFE-SIZE SKULLS OF PREHISTORIC HUMANS IN SWEDEN, STONE AGE, BRONZE AGE, AND IRON AGE. Elephant folio, 16 3/4 x 13 1/4 inches hardcover, publisher's blind dust jacket, 3/4 pebbled white cloth with burgundy paper covered boards, gilt title to cover, gilt title to black leather label and gilt author red leather label to spine, [8], iv, 182 pp, 100 photographic plates. As new in publisher's cardboard box with black cloth covered sides and pink printed paper label, edges rubbed. MAGNUS GUSTAF RETZIUS (1842 - 1919) enrolled at the Uppsala University in 1860 and received his medicine kandidat degree there in 1866. He transferred to the Karolinska Institutet where he became medicine licentiat in 1869 and completed his doctorate in medicine in 1871 at the University of Lund. In 1877 he received an extraordinary professorship in histology at the Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm, and in 1889 he was appointed to the chair of anatomy. Retzius anatomical and histological work concern in particular the sense organs of vertebrates and invertebrates. In humans he studied the anatomy of the brain and the nervous system. Retzius travelled much, both in Europe and America, in order to conduct anatomical and anthropological studies. Retzius conducted a comprehensive study of old Swedish and Finnish skulls, and published more than 300 scientific works in anatomy, embryology, eugenics, craniometry, zoology and botany. REVIEW OF CRANIA SUECICA ANTIQUA by J. Beddoe in Man, Vol 1, pp 71-73, 1901: This is a sumptuous work, fit to be compared to the finest pieces of anthropological literature that oar own country has produced, the Crania Britannica, to wit, of Barnard pavis and Thurnartfj and the Excavations of Pitt-Rivers. It contains, besides maps and other illustrations, 100 plates, every one comprising two admirably executed photographs of crania, of the natural size, and as viewed from a distant focus, so as to obviate almost wholly the usual error of foreshortening. One result of this improvement in method, by the way, is an apparent increase in the proportion of phaenozygous crania, the zygomata standing out further than they would do in photographs taken in the ordinary way.
