Description
This 38th edition continues the tradition of innovation and of extending understanding of the human anatomy. The systematic layout has been retained, giving the reader a complete overview of the workings of the human body. The organistion of the book has been revised to reflect recent developments. The rapid increase in our understanding of immunology has prompted theh creation of an entirely section on Haemal and Lymphoid systems. The embryology and nervous systems sections have been revised to take account of the rapidly changing nature of these subjects. Osteology and arthrology have been united under the Musculoskeletal system and the outmoded splanchnology section has been replaced by a more meaningful cardiovascular, respiratory, alimentary, urinary, reproductive and endocrine. The surface anatomy section has been reinstated.
