About A.D.A.M. Student Atlas Of Anatomy
Amazon.com Review The ADAM Student Atlas of Anatomy is an invaluable learning and review tool developed for medical students as well as undergraduate and graduate students in allied health and human biology. This new second edition updates the first edition's renowned and innovative approach to understanding the human body. The Atlas emphasizes surface anatomy and features unique additional views (posterior, medial, lateral) of important structures that are often difficult for students to understand and appreciate - such as the perineum, head and neck, and limb muscles. Throughout, the art in this full-color Atlas (featuring cadaveric photographs from the Bassett Collection) takes a three-dimensional approach to anatomic structure. Illustrations are appropriately labeled for the beginning anatomy student and are supplemented with radiographs, cross-sectional images, correlated tables, and illustrations of isolated muscles, bones, and attachments. The coverage and detail found throughout the ADAM Student Atlas of Anatomy make it a must-have for every student who is attempting to master the basics of anatomy for the first time. Amazon.com Exclusive: A Letter from the Authors While our knowledge of human anatomy has changed relatively little in the past 100 years, its place in the training of all health science professionals has changed profoundly. Anatomists have successfully responded to the challenges created by this reduction in curricular time by both reducing the body of knowledge covered in their courses and by sifting the body of anatomical knowledge to winnow out the specialist details from essentials that are basic to the clinical education of every health sciences and medical student. We created the ADAM Student Atlas as a visual guide to these basic parts of the body. The new second edition of the ADAM Student Atlas has been completely revised to include a simplified labeling system, more images of fewer structures and, in particular, more images of those parts of the body that present the beginning student with the greatest difficulties. Another innovation, in keeping with our student orientation, is the extensive incorporation of a systemically arranged comprehensive anatomy section at the beginning of each regional chapter. We believe this systemic emphasis makes the atlas an ideal resource of allied health students who are taking systems based anatomy courses. Finally, given the importance of surface anatomy, we begin each chapter with surface anatomy and conclude with the traditional sequences of superficial-to-deep images that students will see when dissecting. Our knowledge of human anatomy and our combined years of teaching experience enabled us to create the new edition of this one-of-a-kind learning tool for anyone needing to master basic anatomy for the first time. We hope you find it to be an essential part of your learning. --Todd R. Olson, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, New York and Wojciech Pawlina, Mayo Clinic, Minnesota A Look Inside A.D.A.M Student Atlas (CLICK on Images to Enlarge) Review "By including both systemic coverage of the body and regional approaches, the authors reach both undergraduate medical students and allied health students....This anatomy atlas covers each significant region of the human body in detail appropriate for reduced-hours medical curricula, as is the case in many major medical schools. In addition to the regional treatment of the human body, a standard for most anatomical atlases, the authors also present a systemic treatment of the body, carefully woven into the regional anatomy approach. In effect, the authors are able to target two different audiences with their unique style and approach. In addition, the detailed regional illustrations with only the most clinically relevant structures labeled are juxtaposed with cadaveric dissection photos. The authors stress the significance of including cadaver photos, explaining that many students prefer to use illust
