Color Atlas of Anatomy: A Photographic Study of the Human Body

Rate this book
The on-going core of this atlas is its standard of realistic illustrations that portray anatomical relationships. Photographs of actual cadaver dissections along with numerous schematic drawings aid the student in anatomic orientation. Chapters are organized by region, in order of a typical dissection. Each chapter contains two sections: a description and illustration of organs, and a depiction of those organs within the regional anatomy. New to this edition is an increase of MRI pictures, approximately 30 schematic drawings made even more precise, and an updated text where appropriate. A Brandon-Hill recommended title.

While I didn’t like it quite as much as an illustrated version such as Netter, it still proved to be a great resource. It is very helpful to be able to look at real pictures of cadavers and the photography in this book was well-composed.

This is anatomy, not the cute little cartoon pictures that accompany most anatomy books. I felt it really helped to have it on hand during gross anatomy when I could not be in the lab with my cadaver.One of the best resources out there.

A must have for any student studying anatomy. This is a great substitute to spending all your time in lab - the dissections are really great and it is easy to quiz yourself by covering up the IDs.

If you are taking an anatomy course you should have this book. If not, it may be gross :)

Rad, even if you only have a slight interest in morbid pictures. If you have a deep curiosity of the body, this is the best out there.

Not sure if I marked the right one; there were a couple of different authors/editions to choose from.
