Customer Reviews

Best anatomy revision book
This book is very well written, and extremely well presented. It tries to cover each topic on a double spread (e.g. the pleura and airways), with pictures on one side and text on the other. This is a no nonsense, no waffle, straight to the point anatomy revision book. Its been an invaluable aid to my revision and has helped me pick up a few extra points ive missed out in my notes. I would describe this book as the ultimate anatomy revision textbook!

A great book!!
This is a very useful book, full of facts broken down into neat chunks. The diagrams are nice and clear, will be great for revision. An excellent anatomy book for students of any health profession not just medics

Must buy
This book is an essential for any medical student!
No frills just all the important facts that you need with clinical applications all concisely organised.
Excellent.
