Main description:

This three volume set is a complete guide to anatomy and dissection for undergraduate medical students.

Volume one (9789386150363) covers the upper extremity and thorax describing in depth each region and its clinical importance.

Volume two (9789386150370) discusses the lower extremity, abdomen, pelvis and perineum, including both male and female reproductive organs.

Volume three (9789386150387) explains the many regions of the head and neck, and brain, and how they relate and function.

Authored by a recognised clinician from Life University, Atlanta, each volume features clinical photographs to enhance learning, as well as interactive DVD ROMs demonstrating cadaver dissection procedures.
