"An extraordinary work of art that in my opinion deserves a prize. Structures are shown on anatomical figures by means of numbers, or outlines in the case of bones, or coloured green or brown for other organs. The author says that one of the objects is to illustrate palpable anatomy that ''can be seen, felt, moved or listened to'' and should be ''supplemented by self examination.''"

Describes the visible and palpable anatomy that forms the basis of clinical examination. This book considers the anatomical terms needed for precise description of the parts of the body and movements from the anatomical positions. It features colour photographs that demonstrate visible anatomy.
