With the emergence of the new field of evolutionary developmental biology we are witnessing a renaissance of Darwin's insights 150 years after his Origin of Species. Thus far, the exciting findings from "evo-devo" have only been trickling into college courses and into the domain of non-specialists. With its focus on the human organism, Quirks of Human Anatomy opens the floodgates by stating the arguments of evo-devo in plain English, and by offering a cornucopia of interesting case studies and examples. Its didactic value is enhanced by 24 schematic diagrams that integrate a host of disparate observations

From the most pedagogically sound organization to the exceptional art, to the complete integration of the text with technology, Saladin has formed a teaching system that will both motivate and enable students to understand and appreciate the wonders of human anatomy. This distinctive text was developed to stand apart from all other anatomy texts with an approach borne out of 25 years of teaching, unparalleled art, and a writing style that has been acclaimed by reviewers. Designed for a one-semester college anatomy course, Saladin requires no prior knowledge of college chemistry or cell biology.

Important organs, body areas and systems described in straightforward language for grade school children. Presentation kept interesting by constant reference to puzzling, familiar phenomena—coughing, curly hair, dental cavities, blushing, broken bones, taste areas on the tongue, baldness, puberty, reproduction. Enlivened with simple experiments children can do. Unabridged republication of the original

This new manual takes a systemic approach with each chapter focusing on one body system. The order of chapters will follow the traditional order found in anatomy or anatomy and physiology courses. The photos will include skeletal images, photomicrographs of histology and cadaver dissections. This atlas includes full-color photographs of actual cadaver dissections instead of idealized illustrations, to accurately and realistically represent anatomical structures. The goal is to produce an atlas that is a strong teaching and learning publication and not just a catalog of photographs.

Revised to reflect the increasing emphasis on clinical anatomy and make this popular atlas more user-friendly. Sixty new dissection photographs have been added along with 250 clinical notes. Includes new layout, color-coded icons, and orientational diagrams. Previous edition: c1993. Softcover, hardcover available.

Each module includes very highly detailed 3D anatomy with many views of the each region and a range interactive functions including full rotation, layering and structure labels. They include all anatomical structures which are labeled and linked to detailed text, high resolution dissection slides, annotated illustrations, slides and animations (such as hip range of motion and the function of ligaments in the knee). Each regional also has an MRI section where labeled cross sections can be correlated with equivalent MR images in 3 planes.
