Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:The on-going core of this atlas is its standard of realistic illustrations that portray anatomical relationships. Photographs of actual cadaver dissections along with numerous schematic drawings aid the student in anatomic orientation. Chapters are organized by region, in order of a typical dissection. Each chapter contains two sections: a description and illustration of organs, and a depiction of those organs within the regional anatomy. New to this edition is an increase of MRI pictures, approximately 30 schematic drawings made even more precise, and an updated text where appropriate. A Brandon-Hill recommended title. Book News Annotation:<:st> includes this
extraordinary atlas among its selections; the first edition was
published in 1983. Now considerably revised and enhanced, the
Atlas continues its mission of presenting human anatomy using
color photos of cadavers, thus giving students a much more realistic
experience of spatial dimensions than pleasantly colored drawings
could ever accomplish. Each of eight chapters consists of two parts,
the first describing the anatomical structure of the organs under
consideration; the second depicting the regional anatomy, with
desciption of the superficial layers followed by the deeper and
deepest layers—thus gearing the work to complement dissection
classes in medical and dental schools. Schematic drawings of nerves
and vessels, the course of muscles, and the nomenclature of various
regions enhance understanding of the details seen in the photographs.
