Anatomical guide leverages exceptional dissection images to
elucidate the biomechanics of the hand and upper extremity The hand
is a unique instrument that executes the commands of the brain and
expresses the nuances of the mind. The Grasping Hand: Structural
and Functional Anatomy of the Hand and Upper Extremity by Amit
Gupta and Makoto Tamai is a state-of-the-art book that details the
functions of the hand to feel, receive, gather, collect and hold,
as well as the complex role that the whole upper extremity plays in
enabling these actions. The anatomical structures intrinsic to
these functions are detailed through illuminating cadaveric
dissections and succinct text. Organized in 5 sections and 38
chapters, the book begins with a chapter detailing the intriguing
history of hand anatomy, followed by a section encompassing the
structural and functional fundamentals. The third section covers
general anatomy and function, with discussions of the nerves and
vascularity of the upper extremity, as well as the brachial plexus.
The fourth section features 26 anatomically organized chapters from
the shoulder to the fingertip with anatomical and functional
insights on the joints, fascia and retinacula, interosseus
membrane, tendons and more. The single chapter comprising the final
section covers imaging and anatomy. Key Highlights Pioneers in
modern hand surgery share vast collective knowledge and pearls on
hand and upper extremity anatomy and biomechanics Over 1,100
exquisite, original dissections of lightly embalmed fresh cadaveric
arms provide unique visual insights about underlying tissues and
structures High quality, never before published original
photographs enhance understanding of anatomy, physiology, and
pathology This practical resource is ideal for reviewing anatomy
and biomechanics prior to performing hand, wrist, arm, elbow, and
shoulder surgery, making it essential reading for orthopaedic
surgeons, fellows, and hand specialists. This book is also useful
for students of human anatomy, physical and occupational
therapists, medical students, and anyone interested in upper
extremity anatomy and function. This book includes complimentary
