Description: Description This is essentially a fascinating account of medieval knowledge about the anatomy of animals and a comparison and analysis compared to todays science and beliefs. Based on and arranged according to the intricate and detailed Jewish laws of kosher and koshering an animal. It is a literal translation of that portion of the sixteenth century codification of the Babylonian Talmud which describes such deficiencies as render animals unfit for food (Hilchot Tereifot in the Shulchan Aruch), to which is appended a discussion of Talmudic anatomy in the light of science of its day and the present time. It treats of such subjects as The Pathology Of The Lung, The Embryo, The Womb and much more. Includes illustrations. By S. I. Levin, Senior Rabbi of Minneapolis, and Edward A. Boyden, Professor Of Anatomy, University of Minnesota. Condition Very nice condition without any writing in the interior. Crisp pages and clean interior. 254.
