Thieme’s Gold Standard Atlas of Anatomy in a Second Edition
New York, NY, September 01, 2012 --(PR.com)-- "Atlas of Anatomy, Second Edition," recently published by Thieme, is a revised edition of Anne Gilroy et al.’s award-winning Atlas of Anatomy which became a bestseller by promoting the process of learning anatomy while providing exquisite art and clinical context. The second edition takes the same user-friendly approach as the first edition and is packed with over 2,400 full-color illustrations. It guides users step-by-step through each region of the body, helping them master the details of anatomy.
Popular features retained from the first edition:
· Coverage of each region intuitively arranged to simplify learning: beginning with the skeletal framework, then adding muscles, organs, vasculature, and nerves, and concluding with “topographic” illustrations that put it all together
· Over 170 tables summarize key anatomic information for ease of study and review
· Innovative, user-friendly format in which each two-page spread is a self-contained guide to a topic
· Muscle Fact spreads-- ideal for memorization, reference, and review--organize the essentials about muscles, including origin, insertion, innervation, and action
Features of the second edition:
· Even more clinical correlations to help students make the connection between anatomy and medicine
· Surface anatomy spreads now include regions and reference lines or planes in addition to landmarks and palpable structures to develop physical exam skills
· New sectional anatomy spreads at the end of units build familiarity with 2D views of anatomic regions
