Trust Gray's. Building on over 160 years of anatomical excellence
In 1858, Drs Henry Gray and Henry Vandyke Carter created a book for
their surgical colleagues that established an enduring standard among
anatomical texts. After more than 160 years of continuous publication,
Gray's Anatomy remains the definitive, comprehensive reference on
the subject, offering ready access to the information you need to
ensure safe, effective practice.
This 42nd edition has been meticulously revised and
updated throughout**,** reflecting the very latest understanding of
clinical anatomy from the world's leading clinicians and biomedical
scientists. The book's acclaimed, lavish art programme and clear
text has been further enhanced, while major advances in imaging
techniques and the new insights they bring are fully captured in state
of the art X-ray, CT, MR and ultrasonic images.
The accompanying eBook version is richly enhanced with additional
content and media, covering all the body regions, cell biology,
development and embryogenesis - and now includes two new
systems-orientated chapters. This combines to unlock a whole new level
of related information and interactivity, in keeping with the spirit of
innovation that has characterised Gray's Anatomy since its inception.
- Each chapter has been edited by international leaders in their field,
ensuring access to the very latest evidence-based information on
topics
- Over 150 new radiology images, offering the very latest X-ray,
multiplanar CT and MR perspectives, including state-of-the-art
cinematic rendering
- The downloadable Expert Consult eBook version included with your
(print) purchase allows you to easily search all of the text,
figures, references and videos from the book on a variety of
devices
- Electronic enhancements include additional text, tables,
illustrations, labelled imaging and videos, as well as 21 specially
commissioned 'Commentaries' on new and emerging topics related to
anatomy

coverage of the peripheral nervous system and the vascular and
lymphatic systems.
The result is a more complete, practical and engaging resource than
ever before, which will prove invaluable to all clinicians who require
an accurate, in-depth knowledge of anatomy.
