McMurtrie's Human Anatomy Coloring Book

Book excerpt: Each year, thousands of students studying to be doctors, physical therapists, and medical technicians have to master the art of anatomy and an equal number of artists want to capture realistic movement and posture. What better way to remember each bone, muscle, and organ than by coloring a picture? The very act of drawing entices the student to spend more time with the image, and to examine the body s structure more closely. That s why this one-of-a-kind coloring book, with its concisely written text and easy-to-color-in medical illustrations, has always been such a huge seller and why it s now revised into this new user-friendly format. Arranged according to body systems, the color-key organization links anatomical terminology to the more than 1,000 precise and detailed black-and-white illustrations. Readers will also appreciate the sleek, lay-flat design, cardboard insert to place under the page for easy drawing, and high-quality paper that makes doing the work simpler and more pleasurable."
