British Medical Association Book Awards 2009 - Commended, Basic and
Clinical Sciences This innovative and highly praised book describes
the visible and palpable anatomy that forms the basis of clinical
examination. The first chapter considers the anatomical terms
needed for precise description of the parts of the body and
movements from the anatomical positions. The remaining chapters are
regionally organised and colour photographs demonstrate visible
anatomy. Many of the photographs are reproduced with numbered
overlays, indicating structures that can be seen, felt, moved or
listened to. The surface markings of deeper structures are
indicated together with common sites for injection of local
anaesthetic, accessing blood vessels, biopsying organs and making
incisions. The accompanying text describes the anatomical features
of the illustrated structures. Over 250 colour photographs with
accompanying line drawings to indicate the position of major
structures. The seven regionally organised chapters cover all areas
of male and female anatomy. The text is closely aligned with the
illustrations and highlights the relevance for the clinical
examination of a patient. Includes appropriate radiological images
to aid understanding. All line drawings now presented in colour to
add clarity and improve the visual interpretation. Includes 20 new
illustrations of palpable and visible anatomy. Revised text now
more closely tied in with the text and with increasing emphasis on
clinical examination of the body.
