Anatomy is that branch of natural science which treats of the structure of organic bodies, — which investigates the connexions, forms, external and internal relations, and intimate constitution of all that is organised. Anatomy is, therefore, a generic term, including the consideration of the structure of man—human anatomy, or anthropotomy ; of ani- mals— comparative anatomy, or zootomy ; and of plants VEGETABLE ANATOMY, Or PHYTOTOMY. Anatomy is further necessarily distinguished, ac- cording as the healthy and natural structure is its object, NORMAL ANATOMY; or, as the diseased or abnormal structure engages attention, abnormal ANATOMY. Abnormal anatomy is itself subdivided according as changes wrought by disease in the organs, originally of healthy constitution, are the object of contemplation, when it is entitled morbid or PATHOLOGICAL ANATOMY ; or, as original and congenital deficiencies, superfluities, or imperfec- tions are the subjects of study, when it is entitled.
