The class-book of anatomy : designed for schools, explanatory of the first principles of human mechanism, as the basis of physical education . Explanation of Fig. are but three bones in the thumb, whichare larger than those in the fingers, because it wasdesigned to oppose them, and therefore possesses astructure quite different. To these three, five mus-cles are attached. a,b,c, are the three, but it shouldbe recollected that a really belongs to the meta-carpus, so that the phalanges of the thumb are two. Only two bones exist in the thumb, but there are threein each finger, —collectively called phalanges, being four-teen in number. Explanation of Fig. 18.
