Product Description

A cornerstone of gross anatomy since 1943, Grant's Atlas of Anatomy continues to reach students worldwide with its realistic illustrations, detailed surface anatomy photos, clinical relevance, and muscle tables. Renowned for its accuracy, pedagogy, and clinical relevance, the new edition of this classic anatomy atlas features many improvements, including updated artwork, more vital tissue colors, new conceptual diagrams, vibrantly re-colored illustrations, and a more consistent art style. Clinical integration has been greatly enhanced in this edition, with clinical material clearly highlighted for easy identification. In addition, the organization within each chapter has been updated to provide a clearer and more consistent approach. A companion Website offers student and instructor versions of Grant's Interactive Atlas, including images from the book, video clips from Acland's DVD Atlas of Human Anatomy, USMLE-style questions, image-based drag-and-drop questions, and electronic flash cards from Gould's Clinical Anatomy Flash Cards. Also available is an interactive atlas for faculty, which contains all of the images, select Acland clips, presentations of dissection sequences, an expanded table of contents, and more! Medical and health professions students as well as faculty and practitioners continue to rely on Grant's Atlas for its accuracy and comprehensiveness. They're going to love what this new edition has to offer! "Compared to [other atlases on the market], I find the contents and the images of this book significantly better mainly because of the life-like images and also the [accompanying] brief descriptions...[which]help keep the interest level going strong." --3rd year student "Doody's Core Titles™ 2009."

user comment Grants Atlas of Anatomy, North American Edition (Grant, John Charles Boileau//Grants Atlas of Anatomy) Better than Netter's. More detailed
 
Review Date: October 29, 2008
Reviewer: I. Ximines, USA
Definately underated. I have no idea why. I have Netter's, Adams and Grant's and I find that both Adams and Grant's are more useful to me than Netter's for anatomy lab classes, especially when used together. Netter's made a very good name for itself. However, before you purchase, take the time and visit the bookstore or the library and compare them all and you will see what I am talking about. I could have used Grant's alone as a student but I bought it last, if only I had the same advice I am giving you I would have chosen Grant's in the first place. I am a curious person and I like to know and understand everything about what I am learning to enhance my skills in the area and I definately think Netter's is lacking in the area of detail information but is very good on labeling the body parts and also has great illustrations. In my opinion and the opinion of my husband and 19 year old, the illustrations in this book may not be as good as Netter's but the information on body parts in Grant's is much better than Netter's. I think Netter's would be better for a graduate while Grant's could be used for the medical student as a study material and for lab classes as well as for a graduate. I say again look before you leap and know what you want so you can make the best choice. I actually think that Grant's is a keeper, but you be the judge. I am not really saying the others are bad, but wouldn't you want the best for your money? 10/08

Review Date: March 1, 2010
Reviewer: Crystal Verdick, Dekalb, IL
I find this book to be ok. There are some muscles and charts that they just refuse to put in for origin and insertions ect because they find only certain "ones" important. For example i wasnt pleased when they just included 8 muscles for facial expression when there are more like 20 or so. So then i had to find another book to look them up to study from which makes this atlas obsolete in some ways.

Reviewer: JJ, Evergreen, CO USA
This is a good anatomy book that is easy to follow, and has good pictures and information. Truth be told, I like Clemente's Anatomy a bit better, but that just boils down to personal taste.

Review Date: August 31, 2008
Reviewer: Michael D. Fisher, Los Angeles, CA
This is a very good book for an advanced artistic anatomy atlas. Most of the material isn't that useful for me but the parts that are useful are more than enough to give this a high recommendation. I especially liked the regions of palpation that were colored on the skeleton. For an artist, those regions show the parts of skeleton that define the surface form of the body (i.e. they are closer to the surface of the skin).
