Netter exemplified the CUSHING’S SYNDROME IN A PATIENT WITH THE CARNEY COMPLEX distinct vocations of physician, artist, and teacher. Even more important— he unified them.

The single-volume “blue book” that paved the way for the multivolume Netter Collection of Medical Illustrations Noted artist­physician, Carlos Machado, MD, the series aff ectionately known as the “green books.” primary successor responsible for continuing the Netter tradition, has particular appreciation for the Green Book series. “The Reproductive System is of special significance for those who, like me, deeply admire Dr. Netter’s work. In this volume, he masters the representation of textures of different surfaces, which I like to call ‘the rhythm of the brush,’ since it is the dimension, the direction of the strokes, and the interval separating them that create the illusion of given textures: organs have their external surfaces, the surfaces of their cavities, and texture of their parenchymas realistically represented. It set the style for the subsequent volumes of Netter’s Collection—each an amazing combination of painting masterpieces and precise scientific information.” Though the science and teaching of medicine endures changes in terminology, practice, and discovery, some things remain the same. A patient is a patient. A teacher is a teacher. And the pictures of Dr. Netter—he called them pictures, never paintings—remain the same blend of beautiful and instructional resources that have guided physicians’ hands and nurtured their imaginations for more than half a century. The original series could not exist without the dedica­ tion of all those who edited, authored, or in other ways contributed, nor, of course, without the excellence of Dr. Netter. For this exciting second edition, we also owe our Dr. Carlos Machado at work. gratitude to the Authors, Editors, Advisors, and Artists whose relentless efforts were instrumental in adapting these timeless works into reliable references for today’s clinicians in training and in practice. From all of us with the Netter Publishing Team at Elsevier, we thank you. THE NETTER COLLECTION OF MEDICAL ILLUSTRATIONS v ABOUT THE EDITORS H.R oyden Jones, MD, is Chair Emeritus of the disorders.
