Book Synopsis
The Third Edition of Diseases and Disorders: The World's Best Anatomical Charts features 70 pathology charts created by some of the world's best medical illustrators. Since our last edition we've added 14 brand new charts and 12 updated and revised charts.
This reference is an essential addition to every library, whether you are a health professional, student, or interested consumer. Anatomical charts show the human body in a format that provides a clear and visual understanding of human anatomy, physiology, and diseases. Medical terminology and easy-to-understand supporting text are printed directly on each chart so readers never have to refer to a separate key card or manual.
The charts are printed in vivid, lifelike colors on high-quality paper, and bound together in a convenient sized spiralbound format. This book is ideal for studying human anatomy, patient consultation, or quick reference.
