Mechanical Side of Anatomical Articulation (1910)

The Mechanical Side of Anatomical Articulation is a book written by George Wood Clapp and originally published in 1910. The book explores the mechanical principles behind the movement and articulation of the human body. Clapp delves into the anatomy of joints and muscles, explaining how they work together to create movement and stability. He also discusses the mechanics of various movements, such as walking, running, and jumping. The book is aimed at artists, particularly those interested in figure drawing, as Clapp believed that a thorough understanding of the mechanics of the body was essential for creating accurate and lifelike depictions of the human form. The text is accompanied by numerous illustrations and diagrams, which help to clarify the concepts discussed. Overall, The Mechanical Side of Anatomical Articulation is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the mechanics of the human body, particularly artists and students of anatomy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
