Book Description
Long established as a standard textbook of gross anatomy, Hollinshead's Textbook of Anatomy is now in its Fifth Edition. Like its predecessors, this volume presents the anatomical facts and concepts necessary to fully understand the three-dimensional dynamic structure of the human body. The text is suited for independent study as well as for use in conjunction with structured courses.Important changes have been made in this edition to meet the demands of contemporary education in the health-related professions. The seven chapters on the back and limbs have been completely rewritten to integrate developmental considerations and functional anatomy with topographical anatomy. More than 200 new illustrations have been added to this edition, including many radiological images obtained with state-of-the-art imaging methods. The illustrations depict both normal anatomy and lesions to sharpen the reader's understanding of the appearance of normal structures. Many of the previous edition's illustrations have been modified and enhanced.

Book Description
This is a system-based textbook which means that it deals with anatomy system-by-system (eg cardiovascular system, central nervous system). As well as the subject index, the textbook contains a regional index to make it relevant also to students following regional anatomy courses.

Book Description
A comprehensive manual of anatomical dissection, this title provides in-depth and detailed explanations for each dissection, enabling students to self-teach. It correlates surface anatomy to anatomical structures revealed in the dissections, which is important for clinical correlation.

Book Description
This handsome volume is the first photographically illustrated textbook to present for both the student and the working archaeologist the anatomy of the human skeleton and the study of skeletal remains from an anthropological perspective. It describes the skeleton as not just a structure, but a working system in the living body. The opening chapter introduces basics of osteology, or the study of bones, the specialized and often confusing terminology of the field, and methods for dealing scientifically with bone specimens. The second chapter covers the biology of living bone: its structure, growth, interaction with the rest of the body, and response to disease and injury. The remainder of the book is a head-to-foot, structure-by-structure, bone-by-bone tour of the skeleton. More than 400 photographs and drawings and more than 80 tables illustrate and analyze features the text describes. In each chapter structures are discussed in detail so that not only can landmarks of bones be identified, but their functions can be understood and their anomalies identified as well. Each bone's articulating partners are listed, and the sequence of ossification of each bone is presented. Descriptive sections are followed by analyses of applications: how to use specific bones to estimate age, stature, gender, biological affinities, and state of health at the time of the individual's death. Anthropologists, archaeologists, and paleontologists as well as physicians, medical examiners, anatomists, and students of these disciplines will find this an invaluable reference and textbook.

Book Description
Understanding Human Anatomy and Pathology: An Evolutionary and Developmental Guide for Medical Students provides medical students with a much easier and more comprehensive way to learn and understand human gross anatomy by combining state-of-the-art knowledge about human anatomy, evolution, development, and pathology in one book. The book adds evolutionary, pathological, and developmental information in a way that reduces the difficulty and total time spent learning gross anatomy by making learning more logical and systematic. It also synthesizes data that would normally be available for students only by consulting several books at a time. Anatomical illustrations are carefully selected to follow the style of those seen in human anatomical atlases but are simpler in their overall configuration, making them easier to understand without overwhelming students with visual information. The book’s organization is also more versatile than most human anatomy texts so that students can refer to different sections according to their own learning styles. Because it is relatively short in length and easily transportable, students can take this invaluable book anywhere and use it to understand most of the structures they need to learn for any gross anatomy course.
