Outline of Cat Anatomy


Book Description

The cat has been used as a subject for dissection in the study of mammalian anatomy for almost two centuries. The very popular Pictorial Anatomy of the Cat by Stephen G. Gilbert, originally published in 1967 and now in its 12th printing, has been used in countless laboratories as a guide to dissection and supplement to introductory textbooks. Outline of Cat Anatomy is an abridged version of the original guide, modified for practical use in one-semester courses. It employs anatomical terms used in human rather than veterinary anatomy and includes illustrations of human anatomy that may be compared with those of the cat, especially useful for the many students who do not have access to human dissections. Gilbert’s earlier Pictorial Anatomy of the Cat is "an excellent, well-illustrated dissection guide for use in courses in comparative anatomy. The text is informative and accurate, and instructions for dissection are clear and helpful.... Highly recommended." —Choice

Human Anatomy Lab Manual (First Edition)


Book Description

"Dissection Simplified" is a set of worksheets designed to teach students how to learn anatomy and complete dissections even when an instructor is not available to answer questions. The manual helps students understand how to complete the steps in a dissection using the cat as a model for major body systems. The language and tone are student-friendly and free of unnecessary technical information, focusing instead on supporting students, and walking them through the process of the lab exercise as they work independently. "Dissection Simplified" also addresses common problems students experience when completing dissections, such as finding specific muscles when they are not immediately visible, knowing when a dissection exercise is truly complete, and successfully preparing for examinations on dissection. "Dissection Simplified" is an effective companion lab manual to standard anatomy textbooks. It can be used in lower division general human anatomy courses at universities and community colleges. It may also be suitable for high school anatomy classes which use cat dissections to study non-modeled body systems.
