Anatomy textbooks

[quote=yeliab_cram;504383]Moore's clinically orientated anatomy is the clearest and most efficient anatomy book for medics. not only is it short sweet and to the point, but the diagrams are clear and simple.

I totally agree with Marc about the anatomy textbook. I also think Mcminns Anatomy Atlas complements Moore and Daly.

they are both quite similar books. if i was going to buy one of the big anatomy texts, id go for Moore's though. Pretty much anything is better than tratora tho.

Hey thanks! I just ordered Moore's to supplement my Martini A&P. You guys are a great help.

Harold Ellis Anatomy. This is probably the best for clinical anatomy.

GUYTON!!!! Clearly better than anything else.

we use moore and dalley but a new clinical anatomist, prof ian parkins, recommends his book...which i don't remember the name of. however, i looked at it in borders the other day and it looks excellent. lots of clinical details, great dissections. it's much smaller than moore and dalley, but i think it has plenty of detail for the medical student. if i bought an anatomy book again i would probably swap moore and dalley for this one. AND it's only £20 i think.

here's a link to a review and description of it:

Anatomy: Grays for Med Students has excellent diagrams, very clear (if a but oversimplified) descriptions and has been a delight to use when I was unsure of topic. Moore and Dalley is what I use to get detailed knowledge - especially for muscles. If you were only buying one, I would buy M&D, because it really is an excellent book, if a bit difficult to understand first time around.

Physiology: Guyton and Hall. There is nothing better.

Have to say am a big fan of the student Gray's although mine is now a bit battered! Also there are 1 or 2 typos (left and right get muddled up occasionally) but great pictures. Also impossibly hard questions on the website to test yourself with!

Whoever said no such thing as a good physiology book is dead right! Have Guyton and love it (quite mathematical which appeals) but not exactly quick reference! Does seem better than most of the rest though!

In Canada and USA, we use Netter's anatomy, amazing guide, haven't used the others mentioned.
