Not illustrated. 1889 Excerpt: ...as in the constructed figure in plate III, even if the curves of the separate sections of the spine may seen to be a little: nore pronounced. The laost important points, the construction of the lower extremities, the position of the pelvis, and the position of the head, are exactly like those we constructed. The question nay arise as to whether this position is very comfortable. It was not our purpose to determine this, but we shall come back to this question later on. We had just one goal from the first, to standardize a natural position that v-ould serve as a suitable starting position for our fteasurements and calculations. We shall call this position the normal one. The centers of gravity for the systems of limbs and for the whole body were now raculated for the normal body position, from the centers of cavity of the separate sections, in order to have a control for our measurements of the centers of gravity both of the separate limbs and of the whole body. If the centers of the joints in the normal position, as well as the measured centers of the nifferent limbs, are plotted on the atiove system of coordinates, the following coordinate values will be obtained, and can be read off directly from plate III.
