Title: Vivid and useful, but sometimes lack detail
Review: Netter's atlas has served me well over the last years. I've purchased it for my anatomy course and used it extensively both at home and at the dissections room. The vivid plates are very easy to read and understand at a glance, major stractures are located instantly.During the clinical phase of my studies the Atlas served me especially at general surgery, angiosurgery and orthopedics in which fields it truly excels (fine paintings of the abdomen and its structures, muscles insertions and origins, limbs cutaways, excellent and vivid blood vessels drawings), it greatly aided me in studying the blood vessels of the bowels - esp. the blood supply of the foregut.But Netter's plates, vivid as they are, lack detail and resolution. The atlas also have a poor head & neck section. For the best in accuracy, detail and head, neck and neuroanatomy, Sobotta is the atlas choice, although at a steeper price and with rather pale painted plates.
