Book cover... illustrations by Genesis P-Orridge for Terence Sellers ... The Correct Sadist... 1983/1990
''All the so-called terrors of solitude console me. The resonant silence of the evening's end, as the stars come into their own is a pleasure I cannot share with anyone - though some do seem sensitive enough. I often awake alone, with the echo of an uncertain sound from the house below fading in my ears . . . I leap from the bed directly and rush to meet the intruders. Perhaps once a week I have such an adventure. But no one is ever there." TS

William Cowper (1666-1709)...Myotomia reformata... 1724
William Cowper (1666-1709) was an English surgeon and anatomist.
This is his most noted work, and is one of the most beautiful anatomical atlases
of its time. The first edition was published in 1694 and contained ten illustrative plates.
Cowper then spent the years until his death on expanding it for the second edition (1724)
