Pictures are not the greatest. I highly recommend using this book with the color atlas of human anatomy, by rohen.Kindle versions do not have page numbers that correspond to pages in the book.
Very frustrating. The book is fine but this book (rented) came to me straight out of the cadaver lab. It reeks of preserving fluids and cadavers. I'm pretty sure I even found some dissected tissue in a page in the 5 seconds I managed to keep it open. I am outraged that would rent me something if such low quality. If I were renting a book, I would NEVER bring it into lab and trash it this way. All the pages have clearly been soaked with cadaver fluids from use while dissecting. At least warn customers first.
I purchased the Kindle Version and immediately noticed that it does not list page numbers or have the same page set up as paperback version. My professor lists all instructions in our syllabus by page number basically rendering using this version useless for me. The quality of the e-version is very good and easy to read so if you are not instructed based on page number it should be okay.
This is the standard dissector for use in a medical school or any other health related profession. It is clear and concise, but be aware that it is helpful to supplement it with an atlas such as Netter's in order to best learn the structures in the lab.
I got the right book and in great condition, but the description says the book is spiral bound and it is not. Not the end of the world, but was expecting the spiral bound version as stated to make life in the Gross Anatomy lab a little easier. :(
In my medical school, we use this text as our primary reference in cadaver lab, and it does the job. The text and instructions can be confusing and wordy at times, but usually it explains things clearly and the diagrams are colorful and top-notch. I am unsure as to how helpful it will be in your curriculum if this is not your primary text, though.
this book was very helpful through dissection. the pictures are very informative. wished they had some tree diagrams telling us the vessel paths. the clinical correlations sections were always good and helpful. dissection directions were very LONG...
This is a must for Gross Anatomy. Sometimes it's hard to read through, but it has sufficient graphics to get you through the dissections and the clinical blue boxes are golden for test questions.
