5.0 out of 5 stars Have trouble memorizing? This book is for you!, May 8, 2002

By	"dvm2004" (Midwest) - See all my reviews

I absolutely loved this book for anatomy...and still use it for more advanced classes today! The drawings are very accurate and Pasquini does a wonderful job providing alternative views. I really appreciated the little poems, etc. that he provides as a way to memorize difficult things, such as arcade formulas. And, you may just need the cute little horse on the potty, cows reproducing and being pregnant to allow a small smile during that difficult first year of vet school.

4.0 out of 5 stars One of the better Anatomy books I've come across, August 24, 2000

By	Michelle S Bell (Barbados) - See all my reviews

Most Anatomy books will put you to sleep but this one is easier to read. The text is well spaced, summarised and there are many illustrations (in the form of sketches). As a Vet student, I find the book quite helpful and comprehensive, too bad there is no color or actual pictures. When studying bones for example, it helps to see the tuberosities, contours and general features from real photos.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great book! Too bad it is only black and white, April 11, 2000

By	"cnk9" (Athens, Greece) - See all my reviews

Great book as far as the content is concerned. It is full of sketches and illustrations (sorry, no real photos), packed with detail. There is reference to the anatomical features of all domestic animals (even Llamas), but less info for the pig. There is also mentioning of the clinical importance for several anatomical features, as well as species variations. Very practical indead, clear and detailed illustrations. Humorous animal characters make the material "ligher". Recommended especially for vet students like myself. It is a good reference book.
