Rene Descartes
In the 1630s, Descartes assisted in the dissection of human cadavers - all to satisfy his curiosity about how bodies work. The fruits of the research can be found in this work that he decided not to publish for fear of suffering the same fate as Galileo. It is aimed at students of history, medicine, biology, and the history of science.
