About this title

Review:

Doody's Book Review Service, Ming Xiaoming Zhang, PhD, University of Kansas Medical Center -- "Besides its extensive and detailed coverage, this new edition...provides readers a great deal of information about the clinical application of human anatomy. It is well organized, well written, and illustrated with unique drawings that help to explain the clinical applications. [It] covers clinically oriented human anatomy and some related subjects of tissue biology (histology) and embryology. The coverage is extensive, detailed, and particularly clinically oriented...This is a unique anatomy textbook that provides students a lot of features not found in other textbooks [including] the clinical and embryological notes and drawings...This new edition is better illustrated and richer in content compared with its previous versions. It can certainly be a good choice for medical school teaching or a valuable reference for teaching clinically related anatomy classes."-Doody's Book Review Service (4 Stars)
