Reddit reviews Anatomy, Descriptive and Surgical, 1901 Edition

If you google sculpting the human figure in clay you will get quite a few hits.

My personal favorite is anything by Bruno Lucchesi. You can find a few of his videos on YouTube. His book "Modeling the Figure in Clay", while a bit sparse on details, served me very well in college.

For anatomy, a copy of "Grays Anatomy" would not be remiss, however, I prefer Stephen Rogers Peck's "Atlas of Human Anatomy for the Artist"

Doctors may occasionally call on an understanding of social science, art and philosophy. However suggesting these plays as greater role than science does in their field is plainly wrong.

Surgeons and physicians don't quote philosophers when providing care. The surgeon has his fine tools but it isn't art. The physician may have a empathic beside manner but it isn't anthropology.

I suggest you dump your "literature" and consult a medical textbook because, you won't find much philosophy there.
