Maynard Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 The anatomy textbook my school uses is a crime against humanity. I had saved my undergraduate A&P textbook and thought for a moment that I could use that, only to remember that my undergrad book was systems based and would not be a very good substitute. Can anyone recommend a good one? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dndandrea Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 My program uses Moore's "Essential Clinical Anatomy." We also use this, which I find to be pretty good. One of my favorites is Netter's Atlas of Human Anatomy (http://www.amazon.com/Atlas-Human-Anatomy-Interactive-Ancillaries/dp/1455704180) It isn't your typical textbook though, every page is a picture with labels. Much more detailed than any other anatomy book i've seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorge Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Not a textbook, but I like "Pocket Anatomy and Physiology" by Shirley A. Jones. It has great pictures and fits in your white coat pocket. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winterallsummer Posted September 17, 2015 Share Posted September 17, 2015 IMHO, there is no question, the only book anyone should lay their hands on is Netter's. I do not like the flashcards, just the book. Actually your library may even carry it but if not, it's well worth $60 or so, or you can buy an old edition for even cheaper. Beyond Netter's, spend more time in the lab and/or make sheets regarding muscle origin, insertion etc and memorize them. Also on YouTube are some good cadaver dissection videos. Other anatomy books are not worth their weight in lint beyond Netter's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torshi Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 I 2nd "moores anatomy" - it was pretty good (never had to really read it, but easy reading if needed) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHU-CH Posted September 18, 2015 Share Posted September 18, 2015 Are you looking for a textbook or an atlas? As people above suggested, Moore's is good. For an atlas, Netter is good for illustrations and Rohen & Yokochi is good for photos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
