Atlas of Hand Anatomy and Clinical Implications - Tapa dura

"This superb book is written by three experienced and respected hand surgeons. It covers all aspects of hand surgical anatomy in 599 pages and 1130 full colour drawings, as well as the anatomy of the forearm, elbow, arm, shoulder and brachial plexus. ... This atlas of hand anatomy is in fact a comprehensive anatomical and physiological description of the upper limb. It is also a perfect basic introduction to hand surgery." --British Journal of Hand Surgery "Intended for orthopedic and plastic surgery residents and medical students, this atlas provides 1,132 color illustrations and brief descriptions of the anatomic structures that comprise the hand, wrist, and arm. Separate units introduce surface anatomy, the skeletal and articular systems of the hand, the muscle system, the vascular system, and the nervous system of the upper limb. The vascular unit describes not only the arterial anatomy of the hand in great detail, but also outlines the anatomy of the venous and lymphatic drainage as complete circulatory systems. The authors are professors at the Albert Einstein School of Medicine and Stanford University." --SciTech Book News, June 2004 "This atlas should merit at least 'wish-list' status for students of hand anatomy. The book is attractive and is a nice size to carry into the operating room." The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery, December 2004
