Outside back cover : "All surgical disciplines that deal with the human face must rely on an exact knowledge of its highly complex topographic-anatomical relationships. This atlas provides a unique contribution to the study of facial anatomy in which readers are allowed to explore deeper into the anatomy as the layers are stripped away, one by one. This book features elaborate composite illustrations created in layers, starting from the skeleton and working out to the surface of the skin. CT scans are used for the skeletal template, MRI series depict the inner layers of the facial region, angiographs report the anatomy of the blood vessels, and photographs of anatomical specimens as well as a living model fill out the rest. The final products are anatomical images of hyper 3D clarity and arresting beauty. Significant landmarks, anatomical details, and clinically relevant groupings of nerves and blood vessels are the primary focus of each image series to preserve clinical relevance. Accompanying text and figure legends emphasize key points, but the focus is always on the vivid anatomical images."

"What is a face and how does it relate to personhood? Approaching Facial Difference: Past and Present offers an interdisciplinary exploration of the many ways in which faces have been represented in the past and present, focusing on the issue of facial difference and disfigurement read in the light of shifting ideas of beauty and ugliness. Faces are central to all human social interactions, yet their study has been much overlooked by disability scholars and historians of medicine alike. By examining the main linguistic, visual and material approaches to the face from antiquity to contemporary times, contributors place facial diversity at the heart of our historical and cultural narratives. This cutting-edge collection of essays will be an invaluable resource for humanities scholars working across history, literature and visual culture, as well as modern practitioners in education and psychology."--Bloomsbury Publishing.

Dès l'Antiquité, des hommes sont à la recherche du « vrai » visage le leur et celui d'autrui. Quelle vérité, quelle fiction ? D'autant qu'il y a certes le portrait et l'autoportrait, la biographie et l'autobiographie, mais aussi le masque. Comment se représenter le visage, le montrer dans une image, le dire dans un texte ? Par la vue ou par les mots ? Visage à voir ou visage à lire ? Là est le problème majeur du visage, avec ses enjeux existentiels et interhumains, éthiques et métaphysiques, organiques et philosophiques, artistiques et esthétiques. Les oeuvres des artistes permettent d'aborder des problématiques fondamentales pour et sur l'humain, pour et sur l'art : peinture, collage, sculpture, photographie, cinéma, littérature, etc. Toutes ces représentations diverses et singulières envisagent le visage dans son identité et son altérité : le visage et les visages.
