Trade Review"This second edition has expanded considerably its predecessor and the main differences are the frequent use of radiographs, CT and MRI scans, brief clinical notes to highlight the more significant areas and also access to an on-line resource and self-assessment tests. At over 500 pages the book is extremely comprehensive and the authors are to be applauded for their meticulous attention to detail. (...) I would foresee that this book will be an essential purchase of all veterinary pre-clinical students and should also find its way onto the shelves of most practice libraries." - Tim Hutchinson, BVSc CertSAS MRCVS; European Journal of Companion Animal Practice, October 2009 "This atlas is a valuable teaching tool for canine anatomy in conjunction with other sources. With its reasonable price, there is little doubt it will gain many friends among veterinary students." Vet Record, May 2010 ''The atlas offers regional and topographical anatomy in full colour images with the support of beautiful drawings labelled in full detailswith a nomenclature based on Nomina Anatomica Veterinaria. Dissections of the cadavers are viewed from the surface inward. The use of embalmed cadavers lacks realism, but it is helpful to study the topographical relationship between different anatomical structures.'' Simona T. Radaelli
