Summary: Loved it!
Review: I am a physical therapy student at Creighton University and this was the required text for our Anatomy course. It was very clinically based and that made reading it very enjoyable.

Summary: Its a very good book to start with
Review: I found Moore's anatomy very useful at the start of my anatomy course. Its very clearly written and the illustratiosn are great as well as the tables and charts. Its very useful especially when you are starting to study a specific region or system. I must say though that it did become a little unspecific and general when i advanced through my course so i reccommend this book for beginners in the area of anatomy.

Summary: if you want to "learn" anatomy as quick as possible, it's OK
Review: I thing this is the perfect book for those who don't want to spend hours readind descriptive anatomy from books like Rouviere or Latarjet. But if you are counting only on this book, you're in a big mistake, cause' sometimes there's no way you can imagine what's the book trying to say, about the lacation, the function, or anything, without an Atlas or something like that.
So you must at least study with this and a nice atlas (maybe Netter o Yokochi), so you can follow the lecture.

Summary: Rave review for Moore anatomy book
Review: I thoroughly enjoyed studying anatomy with the Moore's book. The illustrations are great--I especially found the individual drawings of the leg and arm muscles helpful, and the 3-D drawings of the pelvic region helped me to better visualize this complex area. I was able to study most of the time from Moore and only had to use the Color Atlas of Anatomy as a reference.The text was clearly written and very detailed. At times, it was more detailed than my first year anatomy class, but I was able to skip or skim these sections. I don't think I ever found Moore to be lacking in information. I found the boxes highlighting attachments, function, or distribution for nerves, vessels, and muscles to be very helpful. They proved to be a quick reference. Finally, the blue boxes with clinical information made anatomy so much more interesting. I learned many relevant facts and applied, clinical anatomy.

Summary: just too clincal
Review: I thought this book was amazing!! It was my first medical school textbook. I flipped through the pages, glassy-eyed, realizing that this was what I had been working for! Unfortunately, 2 years later, I ahve still not had the time to do more than use it as a reference book! I am hoping to read the entire thing sometime before retirement! Don't get me wrong, it is a great book, and I highly recommend it for medical students. However, looking back, I wish I had bought it BEFORE I came to medical school. Having the time to read the entire book, and learn the material would have been an incredible asset! Premedical students often wonder what they could be doing to prepare themselves for medical school. Buying this book and reading it would be high on my recommendation list!!!

Summary: Superb text, not so great pictures
Review: I used Moore's as an adjunct to studying anatomy with Netter's atlas of anatomy. I found that the text was concise, lucid, and enjoyable to read, with pertinent and important clinical examples in the form of case presentations. The illustrations, on the other hand, are from Grant's atlas of anatomy, and occasionally are confusing or downright obfuscating (the anterior and posterior triangles of the neck come to mind.) So I recommend reading the text, but referring to Netter's atlas when referring to pictures!

Summary: just too clincal
Review: In fact it's usefull, mainly for a clinical aproach of anatomy, based on surface anatomy and changes in structure originated by injuries. however when performing dissection, that just does not help, the descriptive anatomy, is just to slim, and does not really contributes to understand the three dimensional structure of the human body. However for a quick reference could be an option. Personally prefer the testut-jacob topographic anatomy

Summary: A must for medical and dental students!
Review: Keith Moore's "Clinically Oriented Anatomy" is really a leading textbook, and is a MUST for all medical students. With its great illustrations and tables, Clinically Oriented Anatomy makes every single thing in anatomy clear, not only for medical students, but for all people as well. Although I am a perclinical student, but I have to admit that the clinical blue boxes are very useful. The textbook is simply EXCELLENT!

Summary: Excellent Book on regional anatomy
Review: Kieth L.Moor seems to be a student of Dr Grant who is the author of many books on anatomy.His "Grant's Method of Anatomy"was a masterpiece.Keith's "Clinically Oriented Anatomy " is much ahead of that one.In it's presence you do not need any other book or atlas.The only defiency is Neuroanatomy.
