If you want head and neck anatomy distilled down to its essenceDLthis is it...This book will be useful to undergraduates learning anatomy for the first time, but also for trainees specializing in those anatomical areas above the clavicleDLwho will look back and wish they'd had this text at medical school... Armed with this powerful tome, the pterygopalatine fossa will never again hold such terror, the infamous infratemporal fossa will be laid bare, and the lacrimal lake of despond will dry up. And with this map in hand, a safari in tiger country will be much, much less dangerous. * Professor Alice Roberts, Anatomist, author & broadcaster, Professor of Public Engagement in Science, University of Birmingham *
This is a succinct yet comprehensive pocket guide to the anatomy of the head and neck. Using fairly simple, well-drawn images, the relevant bones are introduced individually then combined to construct regional anatomy. These components serve as building blocks of a more holistic, thorough understanding of head and neck anatomy. * Lesley Knight Gilmer, Ph.D.(University of Louisville), Doody's Reviews *
A sound grounding in anatomy is still quite rightly required at undergraduate level in medicine and dentistry and often serves to kindle an early interest in many a future surgical career. I have no doubt that this addition to the bookshelf will help many students to find head and neck anatomy less of a terrifying prospect by sheer dint of its simplicity. The Oxford Handbook of Head and Neck Anatomy will be particularly welcomed by those of us in head and neck surgical specialities at all stages of our careers, and members of many medical specialities will find the artistry and accessibility of this excellent resource to be invaluable. * Carrie Newlands, Consultant Oral and Maxillofacial Surgeon, Guildford, UK; Chair UK OMFS FRCS Examination Board *
This a beautiful book. it doesn't matter whether you are a medical student or a consultant, this book will teach or remind you of some salient fact. Beautiful diagrams and lots of what I consider trinkets of history in relation to anatomy. * Amazon Review *
This is not just another anatomy book. It is written extremely well with accurate high level anatomy for post graduate exams. The etymology is fascinating and makes this book not just for exams but generally a brilliant read. I have the kindle version but I may just also buy a paper copy to. Illustrations are clear and accurate. * Amazon Review *
