Product Description

Product Description

This is a landmark edition of one of the greatest texts of our time. Gray's Anatomy has been an international bestseller for 100 years; its appeal is not only to physicians and students, but to artists and the medically curious. As the new Introduction by Dr. Crocco states: "Every living physician today has been exposed to Gray's Anatomy and nearly everyone has used it. It was Gray's Anatomy that occupied most of the embryonic physician's waking hours, whether at home or at the side of his cadaver.
"There have been many imitations, but few real competitors. There have been dissection manuals and pictorial atlases brilliantly illustrated with exquisite photographs. There have been synopses of anatomy and there have been monographs on various regions of the body. However, there is only one Gray's Anatomy.
"This stellar book represents the acme of anatomical description over the last century and will probably still be the premier text in anatomy over the next one hundred years. This commemorative edition is a very fitting tribute to Dr. Henry Gray, Fellow of the Royal College of Surgeons, whose colossal work will be remembered by medical historians past and future and by twentieth-century physicians and surgeons as the anatomy text of our age."

Ingram

This landmark 1901 edition of one of the greatest reference works of all time is a must for physicians, students, artists, and the medically curious. The text is teeming with fascinating information. New introduction quality printing, handsome binding, and a fantastic low price. 780 detailed illustrations and diagrams. 5-3/4" x 9-1/8".

2.0 out of 5 stars Beware! This Edition May be over 100 Years Old!, Mar 19 2002
By 
Thomas M. Greiner (La Crosse, WI USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Gray's Anatomy: The Classic Collector's Edition (Hardcover)
I am now speaking to you as an anatomist and as a professor of human gross anatomy -- Student Beware. This is not the book that you think it is.

Look carefully. Gray's Anatomy currently comes in two english editions. The British Version (now in its 39th edition) retails for about... The American Version (now in its 30th edition) retails for about ... If the edition you are looking at costs considerably less than those prices ASK YOURSELF WHY!. You are probably considering the "classic collectors edition" which is a reprint of the 1901 American Edition. There is nothing wrong with that edition, if you are interested in the history of science. However, much of the terminology has changed and in 100 years we have developed a much deeper understanding of human anatomy.

Know what you are buying. If you are a serious student of anatomy, you probably do not want this to be your first (or only) edition of Gray's Anatomy.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good bookshelf piece, Mar 11 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Gray's Anatomy: The Classic Collector's Edition (Hardcover)
Personally, I never opened the book while taking anatomy in order to study. The book is as detailed as can be so it has a lot of extraneous info that med students don't need. However, it is the traditional bookshelf piece for med students.
