Excellent and well organized
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 20 years ago
This atlas is arranged and presented in a way that makes all of its information easily accessible and easy to find. All systems and structures of the human anatomy are shown in various formats, from cutaways to x-rays, with such a wide variety of helps that it's hard to imagine valid criticism. Tables, legends, indexes, brief verbal descriptions of the pertinent physiological functions, etc. It's practically impossible to get lost in this well-organized atlas, and beyond its obvious uses for medical students etc., it's an indispensible part of my library for transcription.
The best atlas for a student's needs

You couldn't ask more from an atlas. It has good drawings, radiographs, accompayning text, and muscle charts. The pictures are easy to follow, and don't crowd the structures with excessive labeling (Netter). What's the big deal with the beauty of his drawings anyway? I purchased a Clemente atlas without the CD and reccommend it that way unless you want to pay twice as much to have the same information in two forms.
The best atlas for a student's needs

Clemente took the best of what other's have drawn, and has put them together in this incredibly useful atlas. Everyone harps about Netter's. I agree that it is a good atlas, but Netter labeled way too many structures on many pictures and lacks prose to help explain the pictures. Additionally, Clemente included charts that group everything you need to know about a muscle (origin, action...) at the end of each section. By the way, why does it matter that Netter's pictures are so beautiful?
Super Atlas!

This atlas is among the finest I have ever seen. It is comprehensive, beautifully illustrated, and it provides the reader with clinically oriented text on pertinent structures. In addition, there are radiographs that are labeled, and charts of muscular origins and insertions right where you need them. The table of contents is color coded and the color tabs are marked on the side of the book for fast retrieval of specific information. This is one terrific book. From an artistic persective, the illustrations are meticulously done with great care and accuracy, and they are visually appealing like no other atlas. Even Netter's fine work is not as polished as the depictions in this text. It must be emphasized that this is much more than simply a picture atlas. A fantastic reference for anyone interested in the incredible design of the human body.
An excellent text to own for practical anatomy

This book is like a hybrid on Netter's and Moore's. Mainly an atlas but contains summary's and clinical applications. A must have for the serious student.
