"Beautiful illustrations. Clinically orientated - lots of surface anatomy, lots of clinical cases, and well explained and annotated radiology cases as well! The excellent short chapter on imaging in the introduction is also very helpful and useful. This book is a really helpful resource for any medical student." "BMA Book Awards 2009 - judges comments"
"I particularly like the diagrams, which are clearly labelled, not cluttered, and helpfully coloured...this textbook is great. It is well-tailored to students, providing the anatomy information that we need to know. It gets a big 'thumbs up'" - Medical Student, University of Oxford (review of previous edition) ..".explains anatomy in a way that is easy to understand, but also puts the text in a clinical context along the way.The Interactive Surface Anatomy is very useful and well made - a great example of how Student Consult can provide teaching tools that simplifies complex subjects in a way no book can."" - Medical Student, Unive
Excellent book for students. Contains very clear diagrams and superimposes bones onto photographs to illustrate their position in the body. Also contains useful tables that give the fundamental details for the muscles such as their origin and insertion. Helps me massively with my understanding of anatomy. Highly recommended. - Louise Brown
I am using Gray's for the pre-clinical component of my medical degree. Different anatomy books suit different people and for me the text is clear, not too packed, well laid out and is supported by excellent diagrams and drawings. Not photos of disections but you do get some 'real' images to support certain clinical and practical elements. Online copy and resources very useful so I dont have to lug the book back home with me at the weekend and the diagrams can be printed out if needed. ltbrgtltbrgtI'll probably get a complimentary atlas for the later years of my course but this is really excellent for now 4.5/5. - James
