This series of anatomy texts has no peer. Each section outlines the key facts, presents superbly executed graphics in explanation, then proceeds to meticulously demonstrate the fine details and subtleties of imaging anatomy using well-labelled and captioned images from every imaging modality ---from plain radiographs through ultrasound, CT, MR, scintigraphy, and even PET.Admittedly the three volumes will set you back nearly a $1,000 if you get the e-book option (very worthwhile to avoid lugging the set back and forth from home to work), but nothing else comes close to such completeness and quality.
This book was for me a real surprise; it's a masterpiece of medical education-skills.The authors show plenty of erudition in their fields,the lay out of the topics is always methodical (starting from embryology,microscopic anatomy,regional anatomy: so you really get the sense of what you are reading,you never get bored with the outline despite the number of pages read).Graphics are very clear (color-coding is very useful),pictures of indisputable quality.Cases are sorted out in a manner that stimulates critical thinking and scientific knowlege-seeking.What strikes is the simplicity & the organisation of the text (never obscure, and always targeted at solving real clinical scenarios).Short; a sublime book that deserves the price.Only thing I can think of that may be improved ,is getting more online/ multimedia/mcQs etc.- references to boost absorbtion of the material.
The best anatomy book I have ever owned!! I which I had this in med school
