With regard to the request by Karen Reynolds for materials integrating
art history and science:

There's a densely written but interesting book called "Body Criticism:
Imaging the Unseen in Enlightenment Art and Medicine" by Barbara Maria
Stafford, MIT Press, 1991 and 1993.  The author uses a lot of terms from
post-structuralism and philosophy, which means it's not a breezy read,
but it's full of fascinating reproductions from 18th and 19th century art of
medical and scientific subjects that show artistic imagination and
scientific ideas meeting in ingenious, and sometimes (to contemporary
eyes) surreal ways.

Regards,
Helen Glazer
