Human Anatomy Laboratory Manual by Christine Eckel is a hands-on learning tool designed to guide students through human anatomy concepts through observation, touch, dissection, and practical activities such as sketching, labeling, and coloring. Exquisite dissection photographs capture anatomical details, and a student-friendly writing style uses relevant examples to engage students in concept application. It focuses on human specimens, and also includes common animal specimens such as cow eye, sheep brain, and sheep heart. This manual was expressly written to supplement and expand upon content covered in the lecture course, not to repeat it. It accompanies McKinley/O'Loughlin Human Anatomy 2nd edition, but is also a stand alone product that works well with any 1-semester human anatomy text.

Top Notch Anatomy,

This review is from: Human Anatomy Lab Manual to Accompany Human Anatomy by McKinley (Spiral-bound)
This is a very fine undergraduate human anatomy lab manual, though there is little to compare it with since the market is focused almost entirely upon medical school courses. Even without that comparison, it is clear from the first glance that the descriptions of anatomy are lucid and appropriate, and that the illustrations are as good as or better than illustrations I have seen in commercial medical anatomy manuals.
This is a systems-oriented exploration of the anatomy, as opposed to the regional approach used in the majority of human anatomy courses. This organization permits ready integration of the microscopic anatomy and therefore has a sound educational basis. Essential differences from a medical anatomy lab manual are the level of detail knowledge required of the student and the mode of learning. In the latter case, Eckel has (wisely, I think) chosen to utilize a programmed learning approach to support the student's learning, in which they must complete worksheets related to the information provided in each chapter. This requires that the student carefully read and understand the text descriptions of anatomy, then use that knowledge to fill in the worksheets. It is here that the previous commenter falls flat. That commentary assumes that the point of the worksheets is simply to complete them. If that were true, then looking up answers on the Web is obviously more efficient, since a search can be performed for specific terms. Programmed learning, however, is not focused so much on finding an answer by assisted search, as it is to use the understanding of the manual text to fill in the answers. There is a signficant and distinct difference between these two objectives. This lab manual fills an important need in the anatomy arena, and I highly recommend it to anyone seeking their first detailed understanding of the human body, or those teaching an introductory human anatomy course.

This book is a nasty ever I bought in my life. The book is totally filled with text(hand written). There are pages supposed to be filled and turned in to the TA but this book do not have any. You guys sold it as it is used but functional.However it is a lie. I hate shopping from you. Having this in mind, there are some better books you sold to me that I would like to thank for it.

Enjoyable to read. The case studies within the text are extremely interesting. Best anatomy book I've ever read.
