Riassunto

This concise, well-illustrated textbook of gross anatomy emphasizes basic principles, functional aspects, and the clinical significance of anatomy. It follows a standard regional organization and covers the essential anatomy a medical student needs to know for class and for the USMLE. The illustrations consist of straightforward, detailed two-color diagrams that focus on functional anatomy. Clinical correlations throughout make anatomy concepts relevant to the practice of medicine. The easy-to-read style and student-friendly design elements aid the learning process by relating details to larger concepts.

• Easy-to-read style and helpful elements in the design make learning accessible.

• Introductory sentences begin every section of the book, summarizing the content of the section.

• Sentences that catalog features of anatomical structure are organized as bulleted lists.

• Numerous tables summarize detailed information and facilitate review.

• Descriptions of clinical disorders are set off by colored shading.

• Extensive illustrations - over 566 two-color line diagrams - highlight key concepts and clarify aspects of anatomy.

• Illustrations are constructed as diagrams to clearly show anatomic detail as well as spatial and functional relationships.

• Integrative frameworks introduce information in a meaningful way that facilitates an understanding of the medical implications of anatomy.

• Embryonic development is integrated into the descriptive anatomy where appropriate.

• The skeletal system is used as a framework for discussion of soft tissues.

• Discussions of hot topics such as embryology, functional anatomy, and modern imaging techniques are included.
