Description
Not since it first published in 1858 has Gray's Anatomy introduced so much innovation to the world of anatomical references. A team of
renowned clinicians, anatomists, and basic scientists have radically transformed this classic resource to incorporate all of the newest
anatomical knowledge...reorganized it by body region to parallel clinical practice...and added many new surface anatomy, radiologic anatomy,
and microanatomy images to complement the exquisite artwork that the book is known for. In addition, a new, multimedia package enables
users to consult the printed book...access a dynamic, continuously updated web site...or explore a CD-ROM containing all of the book's
images plus 9 fully rotatable, strippable anatomical models. Although there are now many books called "Gray's Anatomy," only this 39th
Edition carries on the true lineage of the original text. And, only this 39th Edition delivers so much pragmatic, clinically indispensable
information. The result is, once again, the world's definitive source on human anatomy.
Audience
Everyone who needs a very detailed knowledge of anatomy: Surgeons, Radiologists, Anesthesiologists, Physical Therapists, etc.
