Gray's Anatomy: The Anatomical Basis of Medicine and Surgery (Gray's Anatomy)

Gray's Anatomy: The Anatomical Basis of Medicine and Surgery (Gray's Anatomy) Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The most trusted name in anatomy! Readers will benefit from 2100 superb, high-quality illustrations, thorough coverage of important topics such as the structure and function of each body system, anatomical aspects of common surgical techniques, cross-sectional imaging, the anatomy encountered during endoscopic surgery, and more. "Stands alone as the greatest single reference in anatomy." (Radiology, review of a previous edition of Gray's Anatomy).

Book News Annotation:

The British Gray's is a colorful, stylishly illustrated version of the classic anatomy reference with commentary and essays by specialists in their fields, and at nearly twice the price of the American edition one would expect no less. This current edition features the conventional divisions of study with numerous classification changes, including new sections on surface anatomy and neonatal anatomy. Much of the information provided reflects the tremendous changes and advances in molecular biology and imaging which have occurred since 1989. Includes photographs as well as diagrams and drawings.
Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
