Human anatomy
Saladin's Human Anatomy goes beyond descriptions of body struc¬ture, to read as a story that weaves together basic science, clinical implications, the history of medicine, and the evolutionary basis : r human structure. Saladin combines this humanistic perspective with vibrant photos and art to convey the beauty and excitement of the subject to beginning students.
