Atlas of Skeletal Muscles 6e

The 6th edition includes changes reflecting modern understanding, terminology and teaching of the musculoskeletal system. There are changes on 42 different pages including many new or enhanced notes on function and 20 new descriptions or explanations of anatomical relationships.

Chapter One presents labeled line drawings of the skeleton, which include all structures that are used in describing origins and insertions in the later chapters.
The second chapter describes the various movements of the body, while the rest of the atlas then goes on to illustrate and describe the skeletal muscles.
Each muscle is presented on a separate page with a line drawing. The drawings include the following important features: 1. Bones and cartilage containing muscle attachment sites are shaded. 2. Adjacent structures are shown. 3. Muscle fibers are drawn by direction. 4. Muscle fibers are shown on the undersurface of bone and cartilage as dashed lines. 5. Tendons and aponeuroses are shown.
Throughout the text, each skeletal muscle is presented in a large format with detail and accuracy.
Headings entitled "Notes" can be found throughout the atlas.
The origin, insertion, action, and innervation of each skeletal muscle is conveniently listed with its illustration.
New Art! Chapter 2 has all new art, with improved depth and shading.
Now 2-color! The previous editions were black and white. We've updated the design for the 4th edition and made it 2-color. --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
