Martini: Human Anatomy 7th Edition

Through seven editions, the authors and illustrators have continued to build on this text’s hallmark qualities: its distinctive atlas-style format and its unsurpassed visual presentation of anatomy and anatomical concepts. Our approach for this text has been to provide a seamless learning system with closely integrated art and text. The illustrations do more than provide occasional support for the narrative; they are partners with the text in conveying information and helping students understand structures and relationships in a way that distinguishes this human anatomy textbook from all others.

New to the Seventh Edition

In approaching this Seventh Edition, we paid particular attention to the most difficult topics in human anatomy and to areas identified by students and reviewers. Our primary goal was to build upon the strengths of the previous edition while addressing the changing needs of today’s students. The changes described below are intended to enhance student learning and increase student engagement.

• A more visual and dynamic presentation of clinical information. Select Clinical Notes covering key clinical topics now feature new, dramatic layouts that integrate illustrations, photos, and text in a way that makes reading easy and science relevant (see pp. 108–109, 127, 132–133). Clinical Cases, which appear at the end of each body system section, now include patient photos and diagnostic images (see pp. 110–111, 501–502, 602–604). Every Clinical Case begins with a photo of the patient and his/her background information, making the case personal and real to the students. Diagnostic images (photos, x-rays, and MRI scans) also appear within the narrative.
• Over 65 new and visually stunning histology photomicrographs. These photomicrographs appear in chapters 3, 4, 5, 13, 19–21, and 23–27. The slides prepared for these photos match the types of slides that beginning students will encounter in the anatomy lab.
• New spiral scans. Using the most up-to-date imaging technique available, these spiral scans (see Figures 8.16 and 22.16) provide students with unparallelled views of anatomical structures and introduce them to a new imaging technique that is increasingly used in clinical settings. These spiral scan images have been provided by Fovia, Inc., and by TeraRecon, Inc.
• Improved presentation of figures. Figure legends now appear consistently above figures, and the detailed figure captions that describe parts within figures now appear within the figures. This new figure presentation style guides students through multi-part figures and compels them to read the part captions as they view each part of a figure. The result is easier reading and improved understanding of figures.
• A reorganized and streamlined presentation of the nervous system chapters (Chapters 13–18). These chapters have been reorganized to take a "bottom up" rather than a "top down" approach to make the nervous system easier for instructors to present and students to understand. Specifically, the discussion of the spinal cord started in Chapter 14 (The Nervous System: The Spinal Cord and Spinal Nerves) now continues in Chapter 15 (The Nervous System: Sensory and Motor Tracts of the Spinal Cord) so that sensory and motor tracts of the spinal cord are covered before the brain and cranial nerves in Chapter 16 (The Nervous System: The Brain and Cranial Nerves). Additionally, Chapter 16 also presents the brain and cranial nerve information in a "bottom up" sequence, starting with the brain stem and ending with the cerebrum.
• New "Hot Topics: What’s New in Anatomy" highlight current research. These brief boxes introduce students to new peer-reviewed anatomical research findings that have been published within the past two years. This feature appears in chapters 2–5, 10, 13, 19, 21, and 23–28.
• Increased focus on learning methodology. Each chapter now opens with concrete Student Learning Outcomes instead of learning objectives.
• In addition, approximately 85 percent of the figures in this edition are either new or have been revised. Some figures were updated for increased visual appeal to students (see Figures 1.1, 4.1, and 4.12). In many figures, areas of detail have been revised to improve clarity. All bone photos in chapters 6 and 7 received a new silhouette treatment that results in a cleaner, more contemporary look and makes bone markings easier to see. The presentation of boxes and banners has been improved to better organize many figures (see Figures 9.11, 26.6, and 23.7). The overlay of illustrations on surface anatomy photos has been continued in this edition to provide students with a better understanding of where structures are located within the human body. The information derived from superficial and deep dissections is more easily understood as a result of a new heading style that has been continued in many of the figures (see Figure 23.14b).

Chung: BRS Gross Anatomy 7th Edition (Board Review Series)

This concise review of human anatomy is designed for medical, dental, graduate, physician assistant/associate, physical therapy, and other health science students. It is intended primarily to help students prepare for the United States Medical Licensing Examination, the National Board Dental Examination, as well as other board examinations for students in health-related professions. It presents the essentials of human anatomy in the form of condensed descriptions and simple illustrations. The text is concisely outlined with related board-type questions following each section. An attempt has been made to include all board-relevant information without introducing a vast amount of material or entangling students in a web of details. Although this book is in summary form, it is equivalent to a standard textbook for a comprehensive study with more clinical information.

As with previous editions, the seventh edition begins with a brief introduction to the skeletal, muscular, nervous, circulatory, and organ systems. The introductory chapter is followed by chapters on regional anatomy. These include the introduction, upper limb, lower limb, thorax, abdomen, perineum and pelvis, back, and head and neck.

Anatomy forms a foundation of clinical medicine and surgery and is a visual science of human structures. Thus, the success of learning and understanding largely depends on the quality of dissection and on clear accurate illustrations. Many of the illustrations are simple schematic drawings, which are used to enhance the student's understanding of the descriptive text. A few of the illustrations are more complex, attempting to exhibit important anatomic relations. The considerable number of tables of muscles will prove particularly useful as a summary and review. In addition, the end-of-chapter summaries and summary charts for muscle innervation and action, cranial nerves, autonomic ganglia, and foramina of the skull are included in order to highlight pertinent aspects of the system.

Test questions at the end of each chapter emphasize important information and lead to a better understanding of the material. These questions also serve as a self-evaluation to help the student uncover areas of weakness. Answers and explanations are provided after the questions.

Key Features

• Ancillaries: Interactive Question Bank, Online Text with Figures, and Image Bank
• Chapter Summary sections.
• Comprehensive exam of 100 USMLE review questions and answers with explanations; total of over 550 questions in the book.
• End-of-chapter USMLE review questions and answers with explanations.

Reichert: Palpation Techniques: Surface Anatomy for Physical Therapists

The clinical practice community has been left wanting for a textbook dedicated to the precise execution of in-vivo anatomical examination, and this excellent text emerges in a timely fashion. Healthcare professionals have witnessed an escalation in the need for relevant clinical examinations and the use of manual therapeutic interventions, both of which rely on a thorough understanding and execution of precision in-vivo surface anatomy skills. Because surgical exposure may not be readily available, the clinician must rely on nonsurgical measures for identifying relevant anatomical structures. Thus, surface anatomy skillsets become indispensible for localizing structures and landmarks. This text can serve as a road map for locating relevant structures with exactitude. The clear means by which this text instructs the clinician in tactile localization will compliment essential knowledge in structural and functional anatomy.

The authors have organized the approach to identifying structures by both layer and region. This process of organization can guide the clinician to visualizing a particular structure's relative depth and relationship to surrounding structures. Moreover, the text is complete, offering a thorough and methodical approach to all major musculoskeletal areas of the human body. This will assist the clinician in developing a musculoskeletal surface anatomy approach to the entire human, allowing for identification of patterns, similarities, and differences between structures in the different regions. Finally, the clinician is cued on how the information can be directly applied to clinical examination, which bridges the gap between knowledge and implementation. When used in accompaniment to a thorough, systematic clinical examination, precise structural localization can help to confirm a suspicion of that structure's involvement in the patient's condition.

Surface anatomy is essentially manual in nature. Thus, this text can serve as a segue for accurate localization of structures involved in a manual therapeutic intervention. Moreover, because a patient's response to manual therapeutic interventions could be influenced by a clinician's confidence in technique execution, the clinician's thorough knowledge of structural architecture that is accompanied by accurate tactile localization could serve to enhance the patient's response to treatment.

The knowledge and skills gained from this text can provide a foundation for increased clinical confidence, as it can reduce the clinician's guesswork when navigating to a particular structure. The authors offer practical guidance for enhancing the clinician's success with an invivo surface anatomy experience. So not only are clinicians instructed on what skills to utilize, they are additionally guided on how to best implement them. This text can join the top ranks of a clinician's library and serve as a bridge between foundational science, clinical knowledge, and practical skills. With these features in mind, the text can support an individual's development and progress as a master manual clinician.

This lavishly illustrated guide to palpation techniques provides readers with a solid understanding of topographic anatomy using clear, step-by-step descriptions that teach how to first identify, then distinguish between, the various body structures.


Full-color photographs feature models with detailed drawings of muscles, bones, and tendons on their skin, indicating exactly where and how to palpate. Complementary color drawings show the functional significance of each anatomic region.

Key Features

• In- pth coverage of the entire body-upper extremities, lower extremities, and the head and trunk-all in one comprehensive volume.
• Over 850 full-color photographs and illustrations enhance the text, making it especially useful for the visual learner.
• Easy-to-reference text boxes contain tips and tricks, including advice on finger placement, pressure application levels, and more.
• Study questions at the end of each chapter aid readers in self-assessment and review of the material.
