Rating: Summary: Clinical emphasis helpful to students of health sciences Review: Moore offers clinically relevant information that is beneficial to sudents in the health sciences. Read the many clinical application boxes throughout the text to facilitate learning anatomy in a fashion helpful to the clinician. The case-study problems are also very helpful in transfering basic science into clinical knowledge.
Rating: Summary: great book for med students Review: Moore's gross anatomy book is a great one for med students and paramedical staff. Great picttures and tables though a bit too long for a pre exam review. Its major con would be the lack of 3 D illustrations for better understanding of the anatomy and almost the abscence of physiology. Furthermore, no efficient use can be made for quick review when needed.
Rating: Summary: Almost the best Review: Moore's is great for a first reading, and the pictures and diagrams are first-rate. The clinical examples are right beside the basic anat, which is good when you're beginning to read for understanding but somewhat a bother if you're keen to revise the clinical applications as an entire region. It may be too verbose for quick mugging, but then again Moore really IS excellent for getting one into a new region. The Head chapter is especially lucid.
Rating: Summary: well... not good in some points. Review: Moore's new edition is well illustrated and contains good clinical commets and contents. But it is not a reference book, but a textbook. A textbook must be portable and easy to handle. But Moore's 4th edition is worse than 3th in this point. It is too big to carry, and its softcover is easy to fragile. To be a better textbook, Moore's new edition needs size-reducing in using smaller font and smaller illustrations. If this impossible, it is to be published in two volumes. And It is to be published in hardcover edition.(to be a more portable textbook.) I want a good textbook easy to carry everywhere.. I don't want a reference book like Gray's..P.S.: The cover design is worse than 3rd edition. More beautiful design is needed.(like Rohen's book)

Rating: Summary: Way too many errors in the text Review: My medical school must have ordered an edition that hadn't been proof read. We spent more time going over the errors in the book than anything else. Half way thru the class, I was using it for a doorstop. Graphics and diagrams reversed, ugh, bad news on a test! I think I should get my money refunded. As for Atlases, I used both Netter's and Grants, both were great but Netters is perfection. One thing that was good with the Moore and Dalley text was the "blue boxes" with clinical correlations.
Rating: Summary: A nice anatomy text book. Review: Some times the texts are very superficial. The book is well illustrated, but a good anatomy atlas is essential. The clinical commets are good.
Rating: Summary: Really Great Book - Good for a final summary Review: The book is really great for it clinical aspect and also for the fact that it makes long things short. I am in The first year of medical studies and the book makes anatomy really easy. A lot of my friends prefer Snell's anatomy. Only the osteology part could have been a little better. The book is really great as a final revision prior to an exam.
Rating: Summary: Review of anatomy written by Moore Review: The pictures in the book are not always very well. And i miss the names written in latin. Because we had to lean the stuff in latin, instead of the English names.
Rating: Summary: i luv this book,an adorable book Review: This book is a sort of asset for me,beautiful book,makes an idiot like me to love anatomy.
