PREFACE
A Photographic Atlas of the Human Body with Selected Cat, Sheep, and Cow Dissections is designed to accompany any textbook of anatomy or anatomy and physiology and may be used in conjunction with or in lieu of a laboratory manual.
The study of the gross anatomical features of the human body is enhanced by the use of a photographic atlas to supplement your experience in the dissecting room or in those courses that do not include actual dissection. The clearly labeled cadaver photographs in this atlas were provided mainly by Mark Nielson, of the University of Utah. They are organized by body system, and provide you with a stunning, visual reference to gross anatomy. The cadaver photos are supplemented by histological aspects of various organ and surface anatomy photos. You will benefit further from the helpful orientation diagrams, which accompany many of the photographs.
As you will see from the table of contents, this atlas covers all of the topics discussed in a typical anatomy or a combined anatomy and physiology course. The atlas begins with anatomical orientation and tissues, then progresses through each organ system and ends with surface anatomy. Where comparisons are helpful sheep and cow dissection photos appear with their human counterpart. A complete set of cat dissection photographs appears in an appendix. In addition, a useful correlation guide between the atlas and A.D.A.M. Interactive Anatomy points students who have access to that software to corresponding anatomical structures in the software.
Each photomicrograph in this atlas is accompanied by a line diagram and inset that indicates a primary location of the tissue in the body. An icon with each photograph indicates whether it is a light or an electron micrograph and gives its magnification.
