Featuring outstanding full-color photographs of actual cadaver dissections with accompanying schematic drawings and diagnostic images, Anatomy: a photographic atlas depicts anatomic structures more realistically than illustrations in traditional atlases. Chapters are organized by region in the order of a typical dissection with each chapter presenting topographical anatomical structures in a systemic manner.
Johannes Rohen is known as the father of functional anatomy, and his anatomy books are used by medical students around the world. In this book, he turned his attention to human society, applying his functional approach developed over decades of meditating on the human organism. The result is a holistic yet highly differentiated view of human society as a dynamic organism that takes our understanding of social issues to a deeper level of insight. He sees the same threefold structure at work in human society as he sees in the human organism. This is a stimulating and challenging book from a renowned master.

A highly entertaining history of the Hebrew language and its contributions to all languages. Very well written and charming.
Precise, true to life presentation coupled with colour accuracy, are the unique advantages of a photographic atlas of anatomy. This is why every new edition of "Human Anatomy' by Rohen and Yokochi attracts more enthusiasts, for the anatomical relationships are portrayed exactly as they appear to students on the dissection course and to the surgeon in the operating theatre. Instructive diagrams complement the brilliant colour photographs, explain the structures and make learning and recognition easier. The approach is based on the functional aspects of the organ systems that are shown, with the aid of expert preparations, in layers from the outside inwards as in a dissection.The 3rd edition contains almost 100 new photographs supplemented in many places by more CT and MR images. Rohen.Yokochi is one of the favoured standard works among anatomy atlases not only for students, but also for clinicians and surgeons.
