This paper gives a flavor of Dr. Donald A.B. Lindberg's view of the expanding role of libraries, his curiosity, and his tolerance for taking educated risks, through the creation and nurturing of National Library of Medicine's Visible Human Project. That project produced the Visible Man and Visible Woman datasets and a suite of tools for presenting and analyzing those and similar datasets. The results are used in teaching anatomy and other medical school courses and in software from the open-source Insight Tool Kit (ITK) that is included in many if not most volume-reconstructing systems. This story is a bit personal. From the beginning we recognized and understood each other since we were both "boys from Brooklyn".
本文通过创建和培育国立医学图书馆的可视人项目，让读者领略唐纳德·A·B·林德伯格博士对图书馆不断扩大的作用、他的好奇心以及他对承担经过深思熟虑的风险的容忍度的看法。该项目生成了可视男性和可视女性数据集，以及一套用于呈现和分析这些数据集和类似数据集的工具。这些结果用于教授解剖学和其他医学院课程，以及开源 Insight Tool Kit（ITK）的软件，该软件包含在许多（如果不是大多数）体积重建系统中。这个故事有点个人化。从一开始，我们就相互理解，因为我们都是“来自布鲁克林的男孩”。
