Now in its Second Edition, this concise guide highlights the key concepts and important structures of human anatomy. Its intent is to take the medical student through the dissection process quickly and efficiently. The strength of this book is in its concise format. Each chapter begins with Learning Objectives and Key Concepts, and the text features color coding to easily locate and follow dissection protocols that are presented in anatomical outlines. Includes many new illustrations to help clarify dissection instructions.

Index
--Closely follows Grant's method, but is roughly half the size of Grant's Dissector --Color-coded so students can easily locate and follow the dissection protocols presented within the framework of anatomical outlines. --Each section begins with Learning Objectives and Key Concepts. --Outline format so students can easily group concepts or regional anatomy into blocks of information that are systematically presented. --The dissector is written so that students may begin their dissection in virtually any region of the body. --Every entry in the book is cross-referenced to the most recent editions of the five leading anatomy atlases: Agur: Grant's Atlas of Anatomy , Clemente: Anatomy , Rohen/Yokochi: Color Atlas of Anatomy and Netter: Atlas of Human Anatomy .
