Review
"I purchased this copy for use during my deployment to Afghanistan. It is minimally changed from the Hardback copy I bought at the beginning of med school back in 1990, with just a handful of new images/supplements which enhance the book, but one can never complain about the quality of images Frank Netter left us. When people stop by the department to borrow it(which is frequent), the common adjective, "wonderful" is most frequently espoused. Quite simply the best anatomy book I know of, and as a radiologist, I familiar with many text that don't begin to compare, and at its current price, a bargin which shouldn't be passed by, as it has a place in every physician's library."

The most widely-used anatomy atlas in the world! Dr. Netter's outstanding artwork demystifies this often intimidating subject, helping students to understand anatomy and how it applies to medicine. Now with a stronger clinical focus than ever before, it captures anatomy the way it is most frequently seen in practice with many more diagnostic imaging examples.

As a retired engineer with a fascination for anatomy, I can safely recommend this book to anyone. I have been studying this volume together with Gray's, and although they both have their benifits, when one considers that the illustrations in this volume are paintings by Netter, one is really in awe of such work. In particular, for an enthusiastic amateur, these illustrations miss vitually nothing. I found that the illustrations showing muscle attachments and their insertions, a massive help in understanding the overall joint assemblies and their function.
This volume is strictly an atlas, which enables one to find intimate details very quickly, without having to wade through any text. All in all, a very impressive work.

Anatomy is one of the fundamental aspect of medicine. This is also why there are so many different books out there! Being a student from Birmingham, anatomy is not known to be our strength hence we know which book not to use, and at the same time every good anatomy material is good news to us and Netter's Atlas of Human Anatomy is definitely one of the favourite! Simply the fact the illustrations are done by Frank Netter has already earned a positive review, but the material it accompanies with this book is unbelievable. Available by activating the book on Student consult allows access to: image library, clinical library, MCQ, Clinical pearls, clinical cases, 3D tv, Dissection videos. The diagrams in the book are well drawn, clear and well labelled. Different views are also available, whether it's basic radiograph or cross-sectional images. This will help students to learn the parts fairly easily. As the title suggests, it is only an atlas, so no clinical information or explanation are provided in the book. However, its only weakness (lack of clinical information and explanation) is also its strength, being purely an atlas, the simplicity allows student to appreciate the beauty of anatomy. It is difficult to judge the value in revision (especially as different institutions have different style and systems in teaching and assessing anatomy) but in my humble opinion, it is definitely helpful in the initial exploration, maintaining of interest and appreciation in anatomy.

Format:Paperback
Great atlas with clear but detailed diagrams with very good labels. Would highly recommnd to anyone. I use it to get a better understanding of my lecture notes and for revision purposes. I also use Rohens along side Netters due to the real pictures of cadavers.
The only downside is the useless student consult. There are only a very limited number of plates available to use online. I would strongly suggest you save your[] pounds and opt for the international edition.
