David L. Basset

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia


David L. Bassett was an expert of anatomy and dissection at the University of Washington. He is best known for creating, in collaboration with William Gruber, the 25-volume "Stereoscopic Atlas of Human Anatomy" in 1962. The atlas is a series of paired slides that use Gruber's View-Master three-dimensional viewing system to display a perception of depth and levels of detail that made Bassett's work pioneering.[1]
