An excellent text for MRCS, 17 Jan 2000

By	paulcounter@doctors.org.uk (Newcastle, UK) - See all my reviews

This is an excellent text for people who need to revise anatomy that may have learned at medical school as a pure science, but now actually need to know the subject as a practical topic. It does not set out to be a reference text, but the new look MRCS vivas are pitched at exactly the same level as this book. It will probably not do for the MCQ's, but come the viva get it, read it and pass your anatomy section.

Can't do better, 16 April 2000

By A Customer

There's the anatomy you get taught in the first year, then there's the anatomy you actually need to know. This book contains the anatomy you need to know. Concise text - even the diagrams are to the point, instead of the usual spaghetti of labels you see!

Useful in the right hands..., 18 Jun 2007

By	A. Hulme "ahulme66" (Manchester, U.K.) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Clinical Anatomy (Paperback)

As a first year medical student, I was faced with the ld conundrum of which aatomy books to use and purchased martini at the start of the year. However, although an excellent book, I found that some minor details were just lacking and the clinical questions asked in anatomy sessions just weren't covered.

My anatomy demonstrator recommended this book and I took it out from the library. I was a litle skeptical at first due to the simplicity of the drawings but this is perhaps one of the major advantages of the book. Rather than show everything that is visible in a particular view, ellis shows just the bits which are relevant tot hat particular section of the book, so as not to clutter the diagram. The diagrams are almost schematic in appearance and are good for familiarising yourself with the basic shape and relations before observing them in real life.

The text is full prose, with few subheadings. This makes the book a little harder to skim through to get te info required, but at the same time encourages you to read a section, which i personally found beneficial. The sections are concise with lots of clinical relevance and the uncluttered layout is a pleasant change from most anatomy /A&P books.

All in all, I give this book four stars as I think it is an excellent anatomy resource but principally in addition to a more detailed book. Although not lacking as a standalone book, Ellis is somewhat less thorough than other books but offers a highly useful and informative style that is not found in many anatomy books.
