There are a total of 514 plates in this work. The section on the head and neck has 141, the greatest number of plates, and the section on the back and spinal cord has 25, the least. . . . The plates are each on a 9 1/2-by-12 1/2-inch page. There are internal cross-references from one plate to another. The alphabetical subject index is36 pages in length. Boldface plate numbers refer to primary sources. Terms listed in parentheses on the plates are included in the subject index
**** Netter, creater of the classic CIBA collection of medical illustrations (cited in BCL3) has selected from those great drawings, revising some anatomy and terminology, and made new illustrations when he felt it necessary for this work. This volume has 514 color plates, many with multiple views, all done in Netter's well- known, widely-used, and lucid style. This book will displace many now used in anatomy courses as reference/text books. Annotation c. Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
