Description and Table of Contents

Description

Revised and updated, this third edition text is renowned as a classic reference guide to a subject which is of great and increasing significance to veterinary practitioners. The main section - Topographical Anatomy contains a logical, geographical breakdown of the organ systems, identifying key anatomical and histological features in regional sections. Particular emphasis is placed on the interaction between the various structures, and this aspect is summarized in detailed tables in the respective Appendices of Relational Anatomy. A short introductory section on general anatomy is also included, which presents a fundamental overview of the structure and function of each organ system. Features include a combination of concise, comprehensive text and illustrations; radiographs in addition to diagrams; a complete glossary of anatomical terms; an appendix of relational anatomy - in tabular format to aid cross-referencing and revision; and an appendix of clinical-functional anatomy.
