A few pages are colored in and a couple pages have anatomy vocabulary writen in. Barely used and little wear on corners. Is very useful for studying. Good for scanning multiple copies for studying.

Put simply, this is a work of genius. Tweitmeyer is considered by many to be the Barry Bonds of his field--he makes his own rules and and stands alone at the top of his profession. He was at the top of his game at the time he wrote this book. Although hard to find, it is well worth the search, and autographed copies from his ill-fated book tour carry a large premium. This is a great read for both the beginner or the accomplished vivisectionist. My one complaint that keeps this from getting 5 stars is that I would have liked to have seen the illustrations colored in so I didn't have to do it myself. I blame McCracken for that.

This is possibly the finest book on human anatomy I have ever read/used. Now I know where both babies and poo come from. It has helped me tremendously in my work and hobbies. It is the next best thing to having an actual human cadaver lying on your kitchen table, and we all know how hard they are to come by, except for in the winter. Its full color illustrations truly bring the human viscera to life and the prose is remarkable in that it universally appeals to professional and layman alike. Highly recommended for the medical student or someone like me who just has a thirst for knowing whats inside the human body, but is closely watched by the authorities. And we all know how hard it is to fool the MAN. If I could only own one book for the rest of my life, and the way things are going, this could easily come true, it would be this one. Kudos and my hat is off to you Dr. Tweitmeyer for authoring this great, great work of American medical literature. I hope your next book is as much help to me as this one.

I bought this book along with some other coworkers of mine to review our human anatomy for MRI and CT. It has excellent pictures and very detailed descriptions. Easy to learn from and turn the pages without bending book!! I highly recommend to others! Great price as well!

I just completed my first year gross anatomy course and this book was required. The concept is excellent and the plates are amazing but there is one problem, the book has many mistakes. It was very confusing to learn the relationship of structures then turn to the cross-sectional book only to see the same structures mislabeled. If a newer addition is corrected, I would bump this up to a 4-5 star rating.

It was Wednesday, 1pm and I found myself in the paediatric X-ray meeting staring at an abdominal CT scan desperately attempting to relate the collection of black, white and grey shapes to the anatomy I had studied in the dissecting room over a year ago in anticipation of the questioning which was undoubtedly to follow. Cross Sectional Human Anatomy from Lippincott, Williams and Wilkins sets out to enable basic anatomy to be related easily to the cross sectional imaging commonly encountered within clinical settings. It uses the best imaging from the visible human project to present anatomy in a regional format with a chapter devoted to each region. Each chapter begins with a short description of the most important structures found within that region. Individual chapters contain numerous sections at different levels. Each level is given a double page spread, that contains a labelled cryosection with a diagram and short description to aid interpretation and most importantly a corresponding CT and or MR image. In addition, some diagnostic imaging using other methods (plain radiograph or ultrasound) is provided. All of the imaging is of high quality and web links to where the original visible human data can be viewed are provided. This is a useful book, that achieves what it sets out to do, filling the gap between the traditional anatomy book and the imaging atlas. This is a reasonably priced addition to the bookshelf for rapid review of the anatomy learnt in the pre clinical setting within a clinical context.

This easy to understand review is good for A and P students. It's a good review and I recommend it for any college A and P student. Her textbook is also good because it is easier to understand than some other textbooks. I also recommend <br>which is on amazon... Anatomy and Physiology Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers with Explanations Vol 1, and Vol 2 by Patrick Leonardi. The explanations are great because they tell you why the other choices are wrong and it also defines the other choices. Being once a college A and P student, I found these study guides helped me earn better grades.

The presentation shows a 3-dimensional and anatomically correct<br>version of the human body depicted in full-color. All of the<br>major body systems are depicted for view by a wide constituency<br>of medical students, biology students, students of anatomy<br>and a broad general readship. Each body system has a locator<br>for ease of navigation through the text. Illustrations are<br>annotated methodically in full color. The musculature is set<br>forth in high definition for ease of identification.<br>The work is worth the price paid. Every scientific and<br>medical library should have one. This presentation would be<br>perfect for any class project in science.

This book is a beautiful book. I love the pictures. It is NOT for an A&P class though. You would need a book like Martini, Marieb, Tortora, Van de Graaff for that. But, the pictures are beautiful and on nice paper. The information that is presented is accurate. It is just not detailed. If you expect a very technical book, this is NOT the book for you. If you just want an easy read and overview of the body, this book is for you.

This book is really very interesting. It isn't like the regular A&P text books. It describes some anatomy but it wouldn't get you through an anatomy class at all. The pictures are beautiful and the book is huge with wonderful descriptions. It is very easy to understand, even for a lay person. I enjoyed the book very much. Disregard the other bad reviews. I can't believe someone would make a huge deal about a circumsized cadaver! (which is how they reproduced their photos!!)

This book goes with the textbook required for my Anatomy class, so it really helped a lot. This book was my Anatomy Bible for the semester and it really, really aided my studies. I highly recommend this book. I found myself labling the pictures more than coloring them, who has time to color pictures when they are trying to make a good grade in a subject as hard as this :)
