De Humani Corporis Fabrica/ Andreas Vesalius; Translation and Annotation by Daniel Garrison and Malcolm Hast http://vesalius.northwestern.edu/
This website presents Andreas Vesalius' Renaissance anatomical atlas On the Fabric of the Human Body (1543, 1555) in an exciting new way and explains the work in progress at Northwestern University to translate and annotate this historic work. Never before completely translated into English, Vesalius' detailed account of human anatomy transformed its subject and forever changed medical edication in the West. Its woodcut illustrations became the basis for medical art and illustrations for generations to come, and continue to influence the way we look at the human body.
