Abstract
There are a host of other muscles in both upper and lower limbs whose form and structure will repay careful study. Study of a macerated bone can at most teach one the precise bony attachment of a muscle. It tells nothing of other non-osseous attachments, nothing of the form of the living muscle that gives shape to the limb, and nothing of the surface structure of the muscles, knowledge of which can be used not only to recognise them at operation but to understand their normal function in relation to neighbouring parts.
