Excellent learning material
Firstly if, you already own the netters atlas in book form with all the diagrams, this book adds very little to it, but if you are looking for flash cards with extra information then these are for you. The cards come with arrows on the front with a,b, c, d notation and on the back they tell you all about the specific part...very good for revising and self test. All in all, extrememly useful if your on an MD degree and need to know Anatomy inside out!

A god send
These cards are really useful for learning anatomy because they enable you to test yourself as well as allowing someone with no knowledge of antomy to test you. I would recomend them to any medical student as they are a the best thing for revising for anatomy vivas and exams.

Most valuable revision tool ever! (2nd year MBBS student)
I've personally found that the hardest parts of learning anatomy are the difficulty in organising notes well and it all has to be pure memorisation. These cards are good in that the specific area you're trying to learn is easily findable and on a clear card of its own with not many labels per picture (eg "arteries of sole of foot" has only seven labels) so you can gather as much or as little you want to learn, there's no unecessary distractions in your diagram and it's quick to learn a card which encourages you to learn many in a session.

However there are not many notes with this set so I'd recommend using it to learn anatomy after reading something like Moore's which has the clinical info you'll need.
