The Thirteenth edition of Grant's Dissector restores this renowned anatomy lab manual to its original purpose, which is to serve as a step-by-step manual for dissection procedures. This new edition features a more streamlined approach to cadaver dissection, focusing on more accurate, specific, and clear steps. The overall number of pages and figures has been reduced, reflecting a general trend toward fewer contact hours in the gross anatomy lab.

For 60 years students have come to the dissection table armed with this text and a brand-new set of instruments. This edition, which features 20 new illustrations includes sections on the back, upper limb, thorax, abdomen, pelvis and perineum, lower limb, and head and neck, with each section including an overview of the surface anatomy and a series of dissections. Each dissection includes a brief overview to read before beginning, full instructions highlighted for quick reference, a clinical correlation when necessary, and review exercises that link the dissection sessions. Terminology is consistent with Terminologica Anatomica and dissections include cross-references to standard anatomical texts and atlases. Annotation ©2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
