An excellent book for Teachers and students
I used this book whilst studying and now use it to assist me in teaching Health, Fitness and Sports Massage courses. The book is well laid out in clear sections of the body. The individual muscle diagrams are superb but the book also includes the body in action and shows the reader the muscles that are used in functional activities. This is sometimes hard to understand, as some books look at muscles individually rather than working together. A great book for those on all levels of course that require anatomy knowledge as you can just use the sections that you need. I would also highly recommend that you look at the other books and DVD's available from this range of books. (Teachers Guide, Student Guide and DVD of muscle palpation for Massage Therapists)

Trail Guide
As a Structural Integration practitioner I find this book extremely useful for reference for both myself and at times to further inform my clients on specific areas as I am work with them. It's clear , concise, well planned and laid out, user friendly and easily digestable.

The best guide to the body for any therapist
I was recommended this book by a friend who is a therapist when I started out on my aromatherapy course. Having to learn all the A&P that goes with massage techniques was a major stumbling block for me. However with this book finding muscles and parts of the skeleton and how it all came together has been a dream. I recommend it. My tutor was so delighted with it that he has ordered copies for the college library. Just get this book you will find it is the best book you can ever have and it is so easy to follow and understand, with the most fantastic diagrams I have ever seen. If I could give it 10 stars I would.
