Gray's Anatomy, 39th edition - Our Price £117
RRP - £129
By
Susan Standring, PhD, DSc, Professor of Experimental Neurobiology, Head, Division of Anatomy, Cell and Human Biology, Guy's King's and St. Thomas` School of Biomedical Sciences, King's College London, London, UK
Description
Not since it first published in 1858 has Gray's Anatomy introduced so much innovation to the world of anatomical references. A team of renowned clinicians, anatomists, and basic scientists have radically transformed this classic resource to incorporate all of the newest anatomical knowledge reorganized it by body region to parallel clinical practic and added many new surface anatomy, radiologic anatomy, and microanatomy images to complement the exquisite artwork that the book is known for. Although there are now many books called "Gray's Anatomy," only this 39th Edition carries on the true lineage of the original text. And, only this 39th Edition delivers so much pragmatic, clinically indispensable information. The result is, once again, the world's definitive source on human anatomy.
