Essential Clinical Anatomy, 5E
Book Preface
Nineteen years have passed since the first edition of Essential Clinical Anatomy was published. The main aim of the fifth edition is to provide a compact yet thorough textbook of clinical anatomy for students and practitioners in the health care professions and related disciplines. We have made the book even more student friendly. The presentations
• Provide a basic text of human clinical anatomy for use in current health sciences curricula
• Present an appropriate amount of clinically relevant anatomical material in a readable and interesting form
• Place emphasis on clinical anatomy that is important for practice
• Provide a concise clinically oriented anatomical overview for clinical courses in subsequent years
• Serve as a rapid review when preparing for examinations, particularly those prepared by the National Board of Medical Examiners
• Offer enough information for those wishing to refresh their knowledge of clinical anatomy
This edition has been thoroughly revised, keeping in mind the many invaluable comments received from students, colleagues, and reviewers. The key features include
• An extensively revised art program, giving the book anentirely new streamlined and fresh appearance. All of the illustrations are now in full color and designed to highlight important facts and show their relationship to clinical medicine and surgery. Each illustration has been reworked, whether for the seventh edition of Clinically Oriented Anatomy (COA7) or specifically for this book, to create a uniform and user-friendly product. A great effort has been made to further improve clarity of labeling and to place illustrations on the pages being viewed as the illustrations are cited in the text.
• Revised text with a stronger clinical orientation
• More illustrated clinical correlations, known as “blue boxes,†have been included to help with the understanding of the practical value of anatomy. In response to our readers’ suggestions, the blue boxes have been grouped. They are also classified by the following icons to indicate the type of clinical information covered:
