"Introduction to Anatomy, 1532" by David Edguard is a historical scientific publication written in the early 16th century. The work represents an important milestone in early English medical literature, focusing on human anatomy during a time when anatomical studies were just beginning to gain traction in England, influenced by the Renaissance movement. This text serves as an introduction to the complexities of human anatomy and anatomy education in Tudor England, providing insight into the medical practices of the era. The opening of the work presents a historical context of medical education and practice in Tudor England, contrasting it with advancements in anatomy on the European continent. It begins by discussing the legacy of the Tudor monarchy on medicine, noting the historical lack of anatomical study within English universities compared to their continental counterparts. As it transitions into Edwardes's treatise, the text outlines his approach to anatomy, which, while brief, establishes a foundation for future understanding. The narrative emphasizes Edwardes's aim to improve the knowledge of anatomy among physicians, aiming for clarity and conciseness in his descriptions of human body structures and functions, as he embarks on this pioneering effort to educate medical practitioners of his time.
