Product Description
Since 1940, when Dr. J.C. Boileau Grant created the first lab manual based on Grant's method of dissection, Grant's Dissector has clearly established its authority and preeminence as the "gold standard" of gross anatomy dissection manuals. In the last edition, the material was streamlined to focus on more accurate, specific and clear steps, based on market conditions and feedback. This edition continues to focus on the trend of reduced lab hours yet maintains the quality and reliability of Grant's original manual. Grant's Dissector, Fourteenth Edition features over 40 new figures to provide consistent appearance and include additional details, and is cross-referenced to the leading anatomy atlases, including Grant's, Netter's, Rohen, and Clemente.

Grant's Dissector May 19, 2008 Q. Herrera 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This dissector is concise and to the point of what you need to dissect on the human body for gross anatomy. I also like it because it gives clinical correlations and describes areas of the body that might be obscure in understanding. It also refers you to plates in the leading human anatomy atlases for reference.
post graduate student September 12, 2007 A. Myers (Southern New Jersey) My daughter needed this book for gross anatomy class in medical school. She says it is the perfect study book.
Good guide...needs more pictures though June 26, 2006 E. Case 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
It has been a very good guide to our dissection though it would be nice to have more pictures to aid in identifying the different muscles.
Anatomy lab couldn't be explained any worse May 1, 2006 The Chiller 3 out of 4 found this review helpful
This book is just awful. It does a bad job in pointing out the structures you need to identify, and has many inconsistences. Although it tries to walk you through the dissection procedure, you will end up finding out that reading through it is a waste of time, especially if you're a medical student like myself. It's actually a step down from the 12th edition, which did not mix all the anatomy with the dissection instructions. I really don't understand why many medical schools choose to follow this book with dissections (maybe because it's the only one out there). If you had the choice between buying an atlas or buying this book, BUY THE ATLAS!

This text is very helpful for cadaver dissections in anatomy courses.
