Card catalog description
This fourth edition of Clemente's classic Anatomy is revised, expanded, and more user-friendly. The atlas includes 135 new figures as well as several hundred redrawn illustrations from the Sobotta collection distributed among the following parts of the atlas: Pectoral Region and Upper Limb; The Thorax; The Abdomen; The Pelvis and Perineum; The Lower Limb; The Back, Vertebral Column and Spinal Cord; and The Head and Neck. New indices of sequential figures for each section serve as excellent study guides to every region of the body. The notes have been revised and new leader lines added to the figures. The entire layout of the atlas is focused toward quick retrieval of information required by the student or professional. Plus, Clemente has added valuable muscle charts to make this an indispensable learning resource for students of medicine, dentistry, and the allied health fields.
Customer Reviews
Required but disappointed
Was a required text, but many other classmates found different atlases that much easier to use. We didn't follow dissection as listed in the text so it seemed pointless. Might be useful if implemented properly but it's now collecting dust.
Anatomy Text
This book has incredible detail for each of the body systems and is an invaluable resource for those people who are looking for a reference book to study the systems for anatomy and physiology. It's a good book to keep for future studies in medicine and I recommend it for pre-med students.
Excellent product
This is an excellent detailed pictoral of the human anatomy, like a textbook really, but with captions and descriptions that can be easily comprehended by a non-medical person. The quality of the volume is well worth the cost: the graphic images are clear and true, almost photographic; the print is refined and easy to read; the pages themselves are substantial, not flimsy at all. Want to see how your body works, what you've got goin' on under the skin? Take a look.
