Reviews
"The quality of this edition is superb. The authors have stayed true to the classic Netter style and the illustrations demonstrate key concepts with a remarkably elegant simplicity. The book is at the same time thorough, concise, and comprehensive. Given the significant technological, diagnostic, and therapeutic advances over the last 30 years, this update is certainly justified. I'm convinced that it will prove to be a valuable resource for both trainees and practitioners."-Kristin Scott, MD(Mayo Clinic Florida) Doody Review: 5 stars
