Description
True: not a book; but couldn't resist including this gallery of the splendid work of Frank H. Netter (who stands at the top rank of medical illustrators). The images come from Netter's Atlas of Human Anatomy and are keyed to the plates in that work. The 324 cards are arranged in standard regions and sub-sorted to bones & joints, muscles, nerves, vessels and viscera. Each comments on the image, many provide clinical notes. A fine and aesthetic teaching collection. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
