Good book. Very technical.

Published by Isa , 1 year ago

This is a good book to bring to your A & P classes and labs. It has helped me to better understand and visually what I need to learn, however it is very technical, it might not be the best for a first time/ first contact with Anatomy because of the technical wording but it gets the job done even though it is a bit outdated. I recommend if you, just like me, can’t afford to buy a brand new one for $300 on Amazon.

Has helped me in amy application of work

I happen not to be a student studying anatomy, dissection and medicine but am an opera singer. I use the anatomical data to help me (and others that i teach) understand, apply efficiently and use ergonomically all the muscles of the throat, the intercostals, abdominals and all related areas (including all ligaments etc.). When I viewed the book and was made aware of the muscles, and associated systems with that, then applied the information newly gained, the improvement was vast. When i then applied to my students of singing, their improvement was vast. I now INTEND to get this book for myself (probably the softback)for closer study, scrutiny and general learning.

An excellent reference and a delight to read..

The late Frank Netter has done us a great service in producing this classic. The paintings are just right. What impressed me was how well some of the labeling is done. For example, Plate 318, showing the blood vessels in parenchyma of the kidney, is dense with notations. Yet one does not get lost between the body part and its label. I much prefer this atlas to Pernkopf's work. To get the most out of this book, get Gray's Anatomy, the 38th British Edition (none other please !!!!), as a reading exercise followed by a "viewing" in Netter's book. Truly a gem.

"Atlas of Human Anatomy"

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago

I have been a forensic pathologist for more than twenty years and refer to texts and atlases of anatomy on an almost daily basis. This is, by far, the best atlas I have ever used. Dr. Netter's genius lies in his being able to render complex anatomy in lucid and easily grasped pictures that still look like the real thing. He makes it appear effortless and his real brilliance can only be grasped by comparing his atlas to other (and usually more expensive) works that just do not measure up. I wish I had this atlas in medical school, but am delighted in being able to refer to it now. It is one of those pearls that every first year medical student, nursing student and paramedic simply must have in their personal library. It will prove indispensable in every stage of their careers.

One of, if not the best, anatomical atlases on the market.

Atlas of Human Anatomy by Frank H. Netter is by far one of the most detailed and comprehensive anatomical texts on the market. Full color high quality drawings clearly illustrate almost every aspect of the musculo-skeletal, nervous, visceral and fascial systems of the human body. Whether you are a lay-person and simply curious about human anatomy or are a trained professional in the medical, para-medica, or complimentary healthcare field you will find this text to be truly indespenceable.
