Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
A cornerstone of gross anatomy since 1943, Grant's Atlas of Anatomy continues to reach students worldwide with its realistic illustrations, detailed surface anatomy photos, clinical relevance, and muscle tables. Renowned for its accuracy, pedagogy, and clinical relevance, the new edition of this classic anatomy atlas features many improvements, including updated artwork, more vital tissue colors, new conceptual diagrams, vibrantly re-colored illustrations, and a more consistent art style. Clinical integration has been greatly enhanced in this edition, with clinical material clearly highlighted for easy identification. In addition, the organization within each chapter has been updated to provide a clearer and more consistent approach. A companion Website offers student and instructor versions of Grant's Interactive Atlas, including images from the book, video clips from Acland's DVD Atlas of Human Anatomy, USMLE-style questions, image-based drag-and-drop questions, and electronic flash cards from Gould's Clinical Anatomy Flash Cards. Also available is an interactive atlas for faculty, which contains all of the images, select Acland clips, presentations of dissection sequences, an expanded table of contents, and more! Medical and health professions students as well as faculty and practitioners continue to rely on Grant's Atlas for its accuracy and comprehensiveness. They're going to love what this new edition has to offer! "Compared to [other atlases on the market], I find the contents and the images of this book significantly better mainly because of the life-like images and also the [accompanying] brief descriptions...[which]help keep the interest level going strong." --3rd year student



Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars for artistic anatomy   August 31, 2008
This is a very good book for an advanced artistic anatomy atlas. Most of the material isn't that useful for me but the parts that are useful are more than enough to give this a high recommendation. I especially liked the regions of palpation that were colored on the skeleton. For an artist, those regions show the parts of skeleton that define the surface form of the body (i.e. they are closer to the surface of the skin).


5 out of 5 stars Magnificent guide to the components of a marvelous "machine."   August 30, 2008
This is indeed a splendid atlas to the anatomy of the human body. The particular current edition benefits from photographs and CT scans in crucial places, and is greatly improved over earlier versions. Although it is a bit much to expect it to be present on everyone's bookshelf (even in paperback), I believe that every household should be aware of its existence, particularly in this age of self-managed medicine.

This edition comes with a supposed subscription to "ThePoint" at ThePoint.LWW.com which is one of the most combative and useless sites I have visited...I would class it as a total waste of time, but this is not meant as a negative comment about the book itself. I would comment in passing that the front-cover reference to "thepoint.Iww.com" is wrong, and that the "I" is supposed to be an "L." In a sans serif font it is difficult to decide which is right.



4 out of 5 stars very good   August 15, 2008
The book is very descriptive for most regions of the anatomy. Some regions could be more detailed, but over all I would recommend this book to help to understand the anatomy more than the class room books,
