Thorax
Fantastic overview of the thorax. The pictures are crystal clear, and useful for identifying structures. At the end of each chapter, there are practice questions to test your understanding. I would have paid more for this manual!
Excellent anatomy guide
Clear instructions and great pictures of cadavers. The glossary is very detailed and incredibly helpful. A must have for any medical or dental students learning anatomy.
