Photographic atlas of practical anatomy (vol. 1). Professor Dr Walter Thiel. Graz, Austria. Springer, 1997 (2 vols [vol. 1, vi +427pp; vol.2, xii+417pp]). ISBN: 3-540-61195-9. |
An ideal text
for undergraduates and postgraduate surgical candidates, this volume presents the anatomy of the abdomen and lower limb in vivid and clear detail. This clarity is the result of a new preservation technique in which the specimens retain a lifelike colour and shape, leaving the grey prosections of the past for dead! To avoid clutter the book of colour photographs has a companion volume which presents the same pictures in black-and-white, with arrows and key symbols. Stand by for the rest of
the body in volume two!
