From reviews of previous editions: ''Originally composed for medical students, this thorough reference guide is basic enough to help lay readers understand how human organs work and what happens when they don't. Unlocking vertebrae and cutting off layers of skin, the numerous color illustrations are anything but pretty, but they capture, with detail rare in introductory works, the interconnecting functions that help the human body survive.''-Los Angeles Times ''The illustrations-most in color-are scientifically accurate and artistically beautiful . . . The text is uniformly of high quality.''-Science Books and Films ''The artwork is first-class . . . A book which anyone with an interest in anatomy would be pleased to own.''-Nursing Times, A new edition of a trusted and authoritative source of information about the human body for general readers and students at all levels.
