4.0 out of 5 stars Very nice as "cliff notes" for anatomy classes, May 15, 2000

This book is a handy quick reference. I used it when teaching anatomy & physiology labs and during anatomy classes. Also an excellent quick desk reference. But you might need a magnifying glass to read the print if you are over 40.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Anatomical Charts, April 3, 2002

This review is from: The World's Best Anatomical Charts (World's Best Anatomical Chart Series) (Paperback)

"The World's Greatest Anatomical Charts" is a handy reference on human anatomy. It contains 27 charts that include the digestive system, birth and pregnancy, the heart and blood vessels, and a multitude of other charts on various parts of the human body. At the end of the book there are pages highlighting some serious diseases and why they are caused.

This book is good for somebody that holds an interest in the human body but this is not the best thing for a serious student that is studying anatomy. The charts in this edition are very nice and the color shows good. The print is small but that can make do. This chart is not neccesarily a neccesity but would be good for just taking a peek at what's inside our bodies.

Happy Reading!

This is a great resource: I used it for reference and for teaching in rural health clinics. However, this desktop version is so small you really should keep a magnifying glass handy! The pages are printed only on one side, which is nice, because I used the blank sides to add notes to and make my planning/ packing even more convenient.
