Warfel's two books are useful for an entry-level understanding of gross muscular antaomy. More importantly, these books are unique in that they indicate the motor points of the muscles, which is useful for providing precise muscular therapy to individuals with nerve entrapment problems or for understanding entrapment syndromes. I have found it most useful when used in conjunction with Netter, Clemente, Totora, etc.

I love this book. I got my first book when I was in Physical Therapy school. Several years later I loaned it out & unfortunately, didn't get it back. I was looking at reference books through Amazon.com & found the same edition that I had puchased years ago.

The condition of the book was better than advertised. It was in nearly perfect condition! I am so glad to have this book back.

If anyone is looking for a reference book that includes muscles (origins & insertions), muscle function & nerve supply...this is the book that you want. The small size is perfect to keep with you. However, it is not a pocket version. I didn't want to mislead. I just can't say enough good things about this book. Buy it...you won't be disappointed.

This book has very useful drawings for studying anatomy and the motor points. I found it very helpful for learning some of the finer points of anatomy.
