Product Description:


It didn't take long for students around the world to realize that anatomy texts just don't get any better than Gray's Anatomy for Students. Only in its 2nd edition, this already popular, clinically focused reference has moved far ahead of the competition and is highly recommended by anyone who uses it. A team of authors with a wealth of diverse teaching and clinical experience has updated and revised this new edition to efficiently cover what you're learning in contemporary anatomy classes. An improved format, updated clinical material, and remarkable artwork by renowned illustrators Richard Tibbitts and Paul Richardson make anatomy easier than ever for you to master. Unique coverage of surface anatomy, correlative diagnostic images, and clinical case studies demonstrate practical applications of anatomical concepts. And, an international advisory board, comprised of more than 100 instructors, ensures that the material is accurate, up to date, and easy to use.

Includes over 300 clinical photographs, including radiological images depicting surface anatomy and common clinical applications of anatomic knowledge. Presents an organization by body region that parallels the approach used in most of today's anatomy courses. Features conceptual overviews summarizing each body region's component parts, functions, and relationship to other bodily organs. Uses clinical cases to underscore the real-life relevance of the material. Promotes further learning with other fine ancillaries from Gray's, including Gray's Atlas of Anatomy, Dorland's/Gray's Pocket Atlas of Anatomy, Gray's Dissection Guide for Human Anatomy, and Gray's Anatomy for Students Flash Cards. Features a rewritten abdomen section for greater clarity. Provides updates and revisions to clinical material to provide you with the absolute latest knowledge in the field.

One of a kind conceptual anatomy textbook, December 24, 2009

I used gray's exclusively during my anatomy course in medical school. The authors focus on concepts of anatomy like no other... I never used Netter's or any other overwhelming anatomy atlas and I did very well in this course. If you want to buy an atlas that accompanies gray's, I highly recommend Rohen's atlas... the combination of the two is excellent!!!

A Refreshing View on a Classic Reference, December 24, 2009

My father is a surgeon, and I grew up reading the old, classic editions of Gray's Anatomy that he had retained from medical school. Though I decided to pursue a career in management and business following the completion of my university studies (and degree) in biology / pre-medicine, I maintain personal interests in the production of fine art (drawings) and exercise physiology. This book is an excellent refresher and reference on the functional aspects of human anatomy that are important to many other disciplines, in art and athletic training for example, besides the practice of medicine.
