Contents V Preface to the First English Edition ThefirstGermaneditionofthisbook,whichwaslaterlovinglyknownas “The Faller,” published in 1966. At this time nobody could ever have imaginedthat“TheHumanBody,”writtenbySwissanatomistAdolfFal- ler,wouldremainuniquelysuccessfulforalmost40years.ThirteenGer- man editions and several editions in other languages speak for them- selves.FifteenyearsafterFaller’sdeath,thethoroughlyandextensively revised 13th German edition published. The current English edition is baseduponthisGermanedition. Thenewversioncontainsalmost200morepagesthantheoriginal.In addition,morethan50newillustrationshavebeenaddedtofacilitatean easier approach to sometimes difficult information. Where necessary, entirechaptershavebeenrewrittentocoverthelatestdevelopmentsin human biology and medicine. All these changes have been made with thereaderinmind.Infact,manyofthechangesweresuggestionsfrom thereaderswhichwehavehappilyincorporated.Theseincludeabrief summaryattheendofeachchapter,afold-outdepictingthecomplete humanskeleton,andatableofcontentsatthebeginningofeachchapter. Wethereforethankourreadersfortheirmanyhelpfulsuggestionsand hopethatreadersoftheEnglisheditionwillfollowsuit. Many thanks go to our translator Oliver French MD, who not only skilfully translated the text but also adapted it to American medical practice.Duetohisexpertisethisbookisfarmorethanasimpletransla- tion of a German textbook; it has really become an international text- bookinitsownright.ManyhelpfulsuggestionsfromEthanTaubMD,a NewYork-trainedneurosurgeon,werealsoincorporatedintothetext.

Finally a note on the chapter Evolution. We are aware that many Americaneducationalinstitutionsdonotteachthetheoryofevolution andmanyAmericansbelieveincreationism.However,thetheoryofevo- lutioniswidelyacceptedinEuropeanditsapplicationformsthebasisof manyobservationsonwhichmedicalpracticeisfounded.Itsinclusionin thistextshouldthereforenotberegardedas“Weltanschauung”butasa ratherneutralstatementaboutcurrentbiologicaltheory.
