Two new laboratory manuals, Pictorial Anatomy of the Dogfish and Pictorial Anatomy of the Necturus, have just been added to the highly acclaimed series of dissection guides by Stephen G. Gilbert. The new manuals contain all the features of those already published and widely adopted as textbooks throughout the English-speaking world: --Realistic illustrations drawn directly from dissections --Integrated text and self-explanatory plates so that no other textbook is required --Complete dissection instructions --Anatomical relationshs fully described and illustrated --Structures indicated by numbers; arteries, veins, and nerves shown in red, blue, and yellow, respectively, for easy identification --Numerous lateral views showing relationships not seen in the standard ventral dissection --Each subject illustrated by a small marginal diagram so that the student never has to turn another page to see an illustration of the subject under discussion
The cat has been used as a subject for dissection in the study of mammalian anatomy for almost two centuries. The very popular Pictorial Anatomy of the Cat by Stephen G. Gilbert, originally published in 1967 and now in its 12th printing, has been used in countless laboratories as a guide to dissection and supplement to introductory textbooks. Outline of Cat Anatomy is an abridged version of the original guide, modified for practical use in one-semester courses. It employs anatomical terms used in human rather than veterinary anatomy and includes illustrations of human anatomy that may be compared with those of the cat, especially useful for the many students who do not have access to human dissections. Gilbert's earlier Pictorial Anatomy of the Cat is "an excellent, well-illustrated dissection guide for use in courses in comparative anatomy. The text is informative and accurate, and instructions for dissection are clear and helpful. . . . Highly recommended." -Choice
This book is designed for use as a dissection guide in comparative vertebrate anatomy or in mammalian anatomy. The material covered and the time allotted to such courses varies considerably, and the illustrations are therefore designed to enable the instructor to point out the important features of areas which cannot be dissected in detail by every student. The text describes the norm, and for the sake of brevity the numerous variations which may be encountered in the laboratory are not described. I have used a combination of diagrammatic marginal illustrations, which are labeled directly, and larger realistic illustration, which are labeled with numbered keys.
