Description

Still unique in the field, this text combines color photographs and full-color artwork in one convenient resource. The dissections are amazingly clear, almost 3-D in appearance, and color-coded artwork next to each photo makes anatomy easy to interpret and identify.

  • The only atlas of human anatomy that illustrates structures using high-quality dissection photographs and accompanying line drawings.
  • Clear, easy-to-understand dissections, reflecting more closely the specimens that medical students are likely to see in the lab and be tested on.
  • Interpretive line drawings next to every photograph allow students to test their knowledge by covering the labels.
  • Colour-coding on interpretive artwork teaches the reader how to differentiate between fat, muscle, ligament, etc.
  • Clinical Skills pages help the reader understand how to apply knowledge of gross anatomy to the clinical setting.
  • Features a slightly larger overall size, with increased font size, shorter paragraphs, and more headings for improved readability throughout.
  • Includes more clinical tips and summary boxes.
  • Introduces more MRI, CT, and plain film images.
  • Replaces cross-sections viewed from above with those viewed from below, keeping current with today's convention.
  • Updates anatomical terminology throughout.
  • Adds specially commissioned, unlabelled prosections to Exam Skills pages for more effective self-assessment on structure recognition.

    • Spanish version of 2nd edition also available, ISBN: 84-8086-118-5
