Book Description

Written for dental students, this copiously illustrated atlas provides extensive coverage of the thorax, head, neck, and brain, as well as a sound treatment of the limbs and abdomen. This book is for use by dental students, who require a thorough grounding in the anatomy of the head end of the body and a sound knowledge of the limbs and lower trunk. Detailed guides to the dissection of the thorax, head, neck, and brain are given, along with guides to the study of prosected specimens of the limbs and abdomen. The approach minimizes the student's dependence on a tutor, and allows the teacher to adapt the order of study according to specific requirements. The book is heavily illustrated with photographs of actual dissections, and the techniques and procedures described have been tried and tested over many years of practical use. Dental students, who have previously had to rely on books intended for medical students, will find that this text exactly meets their needs.
