	By: Frank H. Netter, Richard Drake ISBN: 1416037713 Publisher: Saunders Release Date: 31 July, 2006 Bioscience book rank: 395310	The books are great - Grays goes into great detail, and both have excellent and prolific diagrams. (most notably, the origin/insertion diagramsin Netter.) The table of contents is only so-so, making it difficult to find specifics if you don't quite remember where something is.

	Main Version
	By: Elaine N. Marieb, Susan J. Mitchell ISBN: 0805373616 Publisher: Pearson Benjamin Cummings Release Date: 2008 Bioscience book rank: 550783	I liked this manual for quick reference during the class. But when it comes to doing homework, it should be better. At the end of each chapter there is a homework. Sometimes these drawings are labeled differently than the drawings in the chapters themselves. Also, sometimes it's hard to find the answers for the homework questions. I supplemented the info with the textbook from the same author, which would sometimes leave me in the same confusion, or I would use the internet, or the other workbook. <br />In overall is a decent instruction tool, but some people may find it very difficult. I got A's in both lab and lecture. But I worked hard.
	Atlas of Human Anatomy and Surgery
	By: Jean-Marie Le Minor, Henri Sick ISBN: 3822831298 Publisher: Taschen Release Date: 01 September, 2005 Bioscience book rank: 544266	This is a magnificent book. It was edited first in the 1800's and the drawings are excellent. It is very useful for teaching anatomy as well as to review historically some "primitive" surgical techniques. I was astounded at the sheer size of this book. As a medical illustrator/animator and anatomy book collector, this is one of my favorites, but it is a bit cumbersome if being stored on a bookshelf (it comes with its own cardboard carrying case). It can definitely be used as a coffee table book; but I would advise against letting people leaf through the surgery section if they are eating.... <br />I was however; very disappointed that the labels had been removed. Also, some of the pages in the introduction are in french and german. Nonetheless, I can highly recommend this book if it not being used as a reference text, not only for it thoroughness, but the beauty of its artwork and the uniqueness of its style. <br /> Beautiful drawings! I am so happy to see perspectives and layers that are glossed over in most modern anatomical illustrations, esp various depictions of fascia. Striking detail -- I am so pleased I went with the large format of this book. If it didn't weigh 25 lbs I wouldn't be able to put it down!

	McMurtrie's Human Anatomy Coloring Book
	By: Hogin McMurtrie ISBN: 1402737882 Publisher: Sterling Release Date: 28 November, 2006 Bioscience book rank: 480743	Most people will be familiar with the Wynn Kapit and Lawrence M. Elson "Anatomy Coloring Book" which has been around for a while now, and has inspired several spin-offs and knock-offs from various publishers. While that book is very good, this offering from Hogin McMurtrie is my personal favorite i the category. Unlike the Kapit/Elson book, McMurtrie's book is a complete course in anatomy. He begins with basic orientation, general anaomical terminology, and then progresses onto a systematic outline of the various body systems. When I first opened the book, I was initially surprised by how thorough it was. One thing you will notice is, there is a whole lot more TEXT in this book, compared with others of its type. The author takes his time to go through and describe the function and positioning of each example. What's more, there is a thorough treatment of lever systems, the bundling of muscle fibers, and joints unlike anything I have ever seen before in any other book. <br /> <br />The one major problem with this book, however, is that, while the diagrams are beautiful in their own right, one gets the sense that this was not intended to be a coloring book at all. The benefit of the Kapit/Elson volume is that it focuses specifically on the color-association. With this book, coloring seems to be somewhat of an afterthough. As a result, the diagrams tend to be a little too detailed for their own good, making coloring a bit of an effort. What's more, the binding is sturdy, but very stiff - the book does not lie flat at all, like the newer edition of the Kapit/Elson. <br /> <br />That said, I still highly recommend this book for those who want a more through treatment than the typical coloring book. For beginners, however, the Kapit/Elson edition might be the better choice, at least to begin with. Not the prototypical anatomies with crayolas... Very thorough and detailed guide, especially well laid out. An excellent primer before a course in A&P at any level. The plates were of such detail that I didn't think to color them, but found myself engrossed in study. Caveat: the plates are not consistently the best for coloring, due to the use of shading for detail and depth. I don't regret that, as I compared it to several others available. I bought this in-store for the practical examples and explanations for joint types, overview of systems, etc. Good 'brass tacks' guide and a nice, clean, detailed one to supplement other texts. <br /> <br />BTW, Liked how the text referred to what color types I am to use. Perhaps the authors were being mnemonically pedagogical. Perhaps.
