Instant Anatomy is quite different from other anatomy books. The clever structure of the information facilitates accurate and speedy retrieval of anatomical facts, and is very popular with students. Two features make the book especially useful. First, it stresses anatomical relationships, which are even more important now with the increased use of cross-sectional scanning and computer-generated reconstructional imaging. Second, it allows structures such as blood vessels and nerves to be seen in their entirety instead of regionally, as they are so often described in standard textbooks. The section on the autonomic nervous system has been expanded in this second edition to meet the needs of students who often find this area of knowledge difficult. Instant Anatomy is ideal for preclinical students with its dictionary-style format. It facilitates rapid revision for the MRCS and AFRCS candidate. It will also be extremely useful for clinicans who need to remind themselves of anatomical facts at all stages of their careers, and for other groups such as physiotherapists and radiographers.

Instant anatomy is a revolutionary concept in anatomy books. If you've tried to look up the course of an artery or nerve in one of today's anatomy textbooks, you've found that the details are spread over several sections. 'Instant Anatomy' traces the route of arteries, veins, nerves, and lymphatics. It also tells you where muscles arise, where they insert, what they do and which nerves control them. It should be used in conjunction with one of the fuller textbooks of anatomy, but will appeal to undergraduate medical students and prospective surgeons who are studying for the first part of the higher degree in surgery. It will also be extremely useful for clinicians who need to remind themselves of anatomical facts at all stages of their careers, and for paramedical groups such as physiotherapists and radiographers.

Instant Anatomy presents anatomy and anatomical relationships in a simple, unique, schematic manner to aid the speedy understanding and retrieval of anatomical facts. It shows structures such as nerves and blood vessels in their entirety, unlike the partial, regional presentations given in most textbooks. Covering the major aspects of anatomy, each section presents the relevant structures in double page spreads, with clear, full-colour diagrams on the left and concise text for each structure on the right. This new fifth edition includes more surface anatomy such as new myotome maps, bones of the hands and feet, principles of movement at shoulder and hip and images to clarify the understanding of the inguinal region and the lesser sac of the stomach. Ideal for use alongside a core anatomy textbook, Instant Anatomy is the perfect quick reference guide for medical students, surgeons, radiologists and those in many other specialties. The companion website at www.instantanatomy.net with its podcasts and wide ranging multiple choice questions provide invaluable exam preparation.

A solid knowledge of anatomy is essential within any number of fields throughout healthcare. A core discipline of all medical degrees, anatomy is generally taught in a series of laboratory sessions and lectures, requiring students to identify a particular organ or structure, explain its function and describe its relation to normal physiology. Students are expected to learn – and practicing clinicians required to remember – an enormous amount of anatomical information. 
A Visual Guide to Clinical Anatomy is an extraordinary visual reference guide, containing more than 900 high-quality illustrations of the human anatomy. Author and illustrator Robert H. Whitaker draws upon his 30 years of experience as an anatomy demonstrator and lecturer at Cambridge University to present a simple, easy-to-understand approach to both teaching and learning the subject. Each illustration is designed to provide a summary of key anatomical and clinical information of a specific topic or clinical condition. A comprehensive yet user-friendly anatomy resource, this volume: Covers the major areas of human anatomy Provides succinct, clinically relevant information for each illustration Offers clear and accessible synopses of anatomical structures A Visual Guide to Clinical Anatomy is a valuable addition to the bookshelf of any medical student, instructor, surgical trainee, physician, or healthcare practitioner.\nFrom the Inside Flap\nA VISUAL GUIDE TO CLINICAL ANATOMY
