 Promising and different February 18, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Pros:
Good organization of the material
Chapters are structured in a way that helps learning
Images are unique in their approach to demonstrating the anatomy
Cons:
I've heard from several unrelated sources that the book has lots of inaccuracies in it (I've yet to find one)
Many of the diagrams are oblique views that take some time to figure out the orientation and then relate it to anatomical position
 A easy way to study anatomy January 29, 2008
A very clear way to study and undestand a very dificult and complex subjet- The pictures are very clear and didactic.
Excellent book November 23, 2007

As a medical student I often find myself spending more time with this book than I do anything else in my life. With that said, the book does an adequate job of making difficult parts of the body seem approachable and understandable. There is a lot of over-lap between different sections which can be a benefit and a problem, It is beneficial because you go over the material again, which helps reinforce the concepts. It sucks, because you have to waste time reading the same material two and maybe even three times. Overall, this is a decent book that present the concepts well and to the point, and for the most part this is a great book. Even though I have a few quarks about this book, I would recommend this to others.
 Great text to go with photos. September 28, 2007
This book is very helpful when preparing to go in for my lab. It goes step by step through the regions with blood supply, innervation, bones, etc. all in full text, yet it is concise for those short on time. I use this book to prepare for and complete labs and the Atlas of Clinical Gross Anatomy when I am dissecting.
