\ From Barnes & Noble For years, Dr. Frank Netter toiled to create clear, concise and useable medical illustrations, first for the Clinical Symposia and then for the Ciba Collection. Medical specialists have come to depend upon his light touch and fine sense of detail for their studies of gross anatomy since 1948. Surgeons and nurses appreciate the balance Netter struck between simplification and complexity, and his views mirror surgical techniques. This new edition, published since Netter's passing under the aegis of Arthur Dalley, has been updated and revised, and the surgical views have been made even cleaner. Several new plates have been added, all rendered "in the Netter style." There is no text, only well-positioned labels and multi-color diagrams. The book's index and overall organization is superb. If you're studying or practicing medicine, this oversized volume should have a place on your bookshelf. Fatbrain reviewed this book and the publisher's summary, and found that the summary accurately reflects the book's contents. Related Titles: Besides the bound version of Netter's Atlas, there is also a CD-ROM edition, Interactive Atlas of Human Anatomy, Version 2.0, featuring the same excellent images. The pre-med or nursing school student will appreciate Human Anatomy and Physiology and Clinically Oriented Anatomy, on which Dalley collaborated. For a microscopic look, see Kerr's Atlas of Functional Histology. One of the classic explications of both molecular and cellular physiology is Guyton's Textbook of Medical Physiology. Reviewed by JR - April 05, 2000\ \ \ \ \ From the Publisher"This book is illustrated with countless of detailed diagrams by Frank netter and it is detail, charm and clarity of these diagrams that is very much the strength of the book."\ Med Saint, January 2013\ \ \ \ John A. McNultyThis book has had a longstanding reputation for detailed illustrations of the anatomy of the human body. This second edition continues that excellent tradition. The author's goal is to produce a one-volume collection of illustrations of normal anatomy reaching "a happy medium between complexity and simplification." He achieves that goal with great success. Any student of anatomy should have a copy of this atlas in reach while they study. For members of the medical and allied health professions, the atlas provides a ready source of clear and beautiful illustrations to refresh anatomical knowledge. A complete and detailed index is available for review. This atlas comprises a classic series of illustrations of various gross anatomical views divided by region of the body. New to this edition is the inclusion of a chapter on cross-sectional anatomy containing 11 illustrations of cross-sections from vertebral level T3 to the coccyx. A careful comparison of the plates in this second edition with those in the first revealed a few minor changes. Some figures were redrawn to more accurately reflect normal anatomy and some of the labels were changed (e.g., the central tendon of the perineum is changed to perineal body). I recommend the atlas, but those who already own a copy of the first edition probably won't be interested in this "upgrade."\ \ \ \ \ ChoiceSeldom has the appearance of a new scientific book created as much excitement as has Netter's Atlas of Human Anatomy. It has been discussed in the national press and was the subject of a special segment of a network television prime-time news program. The attention provided this book is well deserved. Netter's career during the past 50 years has been as a medical artist, and he has produced more than 4,000 illustrations. . . . Now Dr. Netter has culminatedhis career by combining in one volume his outstanding illustrations of the anatomy of the human body. He has updated and improved many of his previous drawings, and he has created new pictures to fill gaps where no previous ones existed. The end result of this effort is a book of outstanding artistic and scientific merit that is destined to become a classic both in the field of human anatomy and in artistic portrayal of the human body.\ \ \ \ \ Library JournalNow in its second edition, this is undoubtedly the best single-volume medical atlas available today, the only better resource being Netter's classic eight-volume set, published in 13 physical volumes over 33 years starting in 1959 and originally called CIBA Collection of Medical Illustrations after the publisher. (The name was changed to Netter's Collection of Medical Illustrations by the new publisher, Novartis.) Once again, Netter's masterly artwork has been faithfully reproduced, though the first edition (LJ 12/89) has been updated to reflect current anatomical knowledge and to incorporate new cross-sectional images to assist in the recognition of current "scanned" images. Organized by anatomical regions, the illustrations are colorful, easily defined, and clearly labeled, and the book closes with a very easy-to-use 48-page index. Highly recommended for public and academic librariesEric D. Albright, Duke Univ. Medical Ctr. Lib., Durham, NC\ \ \ \ \ Booknews**** Netter, creater of the classic CIBA collection of medical illustrations (cited in BCL3) has selected from those great drawings, revising some anatomy and terminology, and made new illustrations when he felt it necessary for this work. This volume has 514 color plates, many with multiple views, all done in Netter's well- known, widely-used, and lucid style. This book will displace many now used in anatomy courses as reference/text books. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)\ \ \ \ \ Doody Review ServicesReviewer: John A.
