Musculoskeletal Anatomy

Here’s a colorful way to learn about the anatomy of the body. The Layer Book is created for beginning and intermediate students of musculoskeletal anatomy in order to bridge the gap between the flat illustrations of anatomy textbooks and the three-dimensional anatomy of the living body. The layered muscle illustrations in this book show the muscles in all areas of the body, as well as the relationships between layers of muscles.


Students of massage, nursing, physical therapy, personal trainers, fitness instructors, yoga instructors, medical students and even high school students of anatomy will all discover new insights into the musculoskeletal system. Show it to your students and clients. It can be a helpful tool to educate them about the anatomy in their own body.


If you want to enhance your learning by drawing the muscle layers yourself, the appendix contains the skeleton layers for all of the layer illustrations in the book. Complete instructions are provided in the appendix. Like the iPad itself, you appreciate this book best when you get your hands on it.
