About the Author
Peter H. ABRAHAMS , MB BS, FRCS (Ed), FRCR

We have few authors as dynamic and entrepreneurial as Peter Abrahams. He combines a part-time Family Practitioner job, in a busy North London GP practice, with academic positions at Girton College and Kigezi School in Cambridge, in addition to numerous publishing activities (ranging from Editorial Board of Clinical Anatomy to Consultant on Inside the Human Body). He has been involved in the publication of numerous Mosby anatomy titles, in print and non-print formats, and took over the McMinn atlas in its last, fourth edition. He is an efficient, business-like author with a great delivery record.

Most Helpful Customer Reviews   6 of 6 people found the following review helpful: 5.0 out of 5 stars As good as a dissection, 17 Dec 2000 By A Customer This is a medical student's dream. Perfect when you need to do some learning or revision, but can't get near the dissection room or a skeleton to check things out for yourself. Fabulous dissections perfectly photographed make for a great atlas. Comment Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?

It has pictures of real cadavers and bones which is so much more useful than looking at a cartoon drawing where all the arteries are red, veins are blue etc. As a medical student myself, I would recommend this to anyone who's learning anatomy or to anyone fascinated with the human body-an investment for the future indeed!

Nicely presented and organised well into different areas. Great clinical applications as well which a lot of courses nowadays focus on. Dont be put off by the price and buy one ... its an investment - will be useful throughout the clinical course as well. Comment Comment | Permalink | Was this review helpful to you?
