N. Levashov's «SvetL Broom» in A. Khatybov's «Bath School» Book 3. The Cell and Health

Book 3. The Cell and Health. Chapter 5. They drink drugs to health 270 A man has always wondered how his body works. As far as in ancient Egypt, doctors began to describe some organs, for example, the brain and heart. And gradually, during many centuries, knowledge about the structure of the human body evolved into the most important medical science – anatomy. An anatomical atlas helps to study it – a collection of pictures of all organs and their systems. This is why N. Levashov insisted on including visualized pictures of the body systems in the program block of the " SvetL " Complex , which are taken from the currently functioning anatomical atlases. This allows the User to have at least some initial idea of the organization of his own body (organism). As time showed, it turned out to be very useful. One of the first known ancient Greek anatomists was Hippocrates. In his works he described the organization of some internal organs, eyes, and bones of the skull, ribs, vertebrae, muscles, joints and some great blood vessels. Herophilus and Erasistratus were the first scientists of ancient Greece, who dissected corpses of people and thus studied the organization of organs. Galen, an outstanding physician of Ancient Rome, because of the ban on autopsies, studied anatomy on the corpses of sheep, dogs and pigs. At the same time, he believed that the organization of the body of animals and humans had no differences, because of which in his work there was many significant errors. Galen systematized all available at that time information on anatomy, and his writings served as the basis for training doctors for thirteen centuries . In the Middle Ages, because of the domination of the church, the study of anatomy almost stopped, but in the Renaissance this science made a large step forward in its development. Leonardo da Vinci, a famous artist, philosopher and scientist, was interested in plastic anatomy, and he made a lot of accurate drawings of the internal organs, muscles and bones of man and animals. These were the FIRST ANATOMICALLY CORRECT PICTURES of the human body, his organs and systems. But the works of this outstanding scientist were not widely known among contemporaries. Andreas Vesaliy is considered the creator of systematic human anatomy. Studying the bodies of executed criminals, he described the organs and systems of the human body and pointed out the errors of many anatomists in his work "On the organization of the human body". The
