Book Description
This atlas includes full-color photographs of actual cadaver dissections instead of idealized illustrations, to accurately and realistically represent anatomical structures. Often used by students as an alternative or supplement to their lab experience, and as an introduction to exactly what they should see before they dissect, as well as a study aid before practical/identification exams.
Customer Reviews:
Rohen's Photo Atlas: great book!.......2007-10-17
As a first year med student I found this book extremely helpful for Gross Anatomy (at least the first third); the pictures were great. Maybe a little too perfect to prepare for the practical, but nevertheless, this book is a wonderful resource.
Good but need compliment atlas.......2007-08-10
the atlas is good and descriptive. It is helpful and detailed for clinical use. For learning though there are better atlas, like the netter atlas. this is not to say that this atlas is bad. If this atlas is used in compliment to the netter atlas, learning is easier.
Not Perfect but Essential.......2007-03-09
This atlas of anatomy is an excellent addition to your anatomy textbooks. You get actual cadaver photos instead of stylized drawings of the 'typical' human. This atlas cannot be used without an accompanying textbook such as a Grey's Anatomy, but this can really make a difference for a practical. If people damage bodies and you cannot find the structure, this atlas allows you to pinpoint it with accuracy. It does have a few omissions here and there, but compared to the other atlases, this is much better.
Plentiful, clear photos and outstanding organization.......2007-02-14
I too, return to this atlas for the photo-realism. I especially appreciated the colored cranial bones (just like my favorite real model in class), colored bronchopulmonary segments of the lungs, and colored differentiation of the brain lobes. The photos of the skull break apart each individual bone into multiple angle views and pieces to expose you to all the hidden landmarks. They're also a good test of spacial recognition of the same landmark from multiple views and layers. Other photo atlases just don't have this breath and depth AND the photos in this one are the clearest I've seen. Most are shot on a black background for utmost contrast and clarity. The cadaver disections are clearly defined and distinctly detailed. Pencil sketches which further clarify the photos, are in black and white, using color only to highlight the featured system or organ, which is a different approach from Netter's.
Essential supplement for gross anatomy.......2007-01-06
I used this book along with Netter's atlas for my gross anatomy course in med school. However I found myself referring to Rohen far and away more often than Netter's. Because Rohen has actual photographs of cadavers it is VERY useful for studying for anatomy PRACTICAL EXAMS. What you see in Rohen is what you will see on your cadaver, whereas Netter's is pretty to look at but not at all realistic. Highly recommended!

Book Description
The on-going core of this atlas is its standard of realistic illustrations that portray anatomical relationships. Photographs of actual cadaver dissections along with numerous schematic drawings aid the student in anatomic orientation. Chapters are organized by region, in order of a typical dissection. Each chapter contains two sections: a description and illustration of organs, and a depiction of those organs within the regional anatomy. New to this edition is an increase of MRI pictures, approximately 30 schematic drawings made even more precise, and an updated text where appropriate. A Brandon-Hill recommended title.

A must for anatomy.......2007-10-03
I consider this book to be a must for any anatomy student. The pictures are exactly what you will see when you enter the lab.
love this book.......2007-03-28
In case it isn't clear from the description or title, this is an anatomy atlas made up of photos of actual human bodies. I don't know why we didn't have this in A&P. Fascinating, and a nicely produced book as well.
GREAT BOOK, EVEN GREATER IF YOU OWN ONE!!!!!!!!!.......2006-03-26
AM A SECOND YEAR STUDENT OF ANATOMY, AND AM GOING INTO THE RADIOGRAPHER TECH PROGRAM AT MY SHCOOL I JUST BOUGHT THIS BOOK AFTER SEEING IT, AFTER SOMEONE BOUGHT IT. SO I ORDERED MY OWN COPY, AND AM TOTALLY BLOWN AWAY BY THE PERCISION OF THE BOOKS DETAIL ON EVERY SINGLE PHOTOGRAPH. I THINK THIS WILL BE A DEFINATE KEEPER, AND IF YOU ARE LOOKING AT THE PRICE WITH A SIGH, DON'T JUST GET IT AND ENJOY!~
Also recommended: ALSO STRONGLY RECOMMEND THE COLOR ATLAS OF HUMAN ANATOMY by Wolf-Heidegger!!!!!!!!
Two sided ..........2006-03-25
My opinion about this book is a bit two sided and that's why:
I bought this one for my first year medical anatomy course and was a little mystified by it, at least at the beginning. I couldn't really understand what is going on in the corpse and as I looked into this book the sight was "cleaner" but similar. Naturally I put it away for a while and used Netter which was excellent.
A while after I became familiar with gross anatomical structures I opened it again, and only then I undestood what is going on inside, and only then I understood how great this book is!
Especially nice and logical where the drawings and explanations included.
Thus, my conclusion is that this book can be a great find for a student who has already taken the course, for a review or other purpose, but for a true beginner in this field it is almost the same as looking at the body.
In my opinion, to make an Atlas understandable for the beginner, it must NOT be real but must present the human body as seen through the eyes of the student. This job is perfectly done by Netter.
A great anatomy text.......2005-09-29
I agree completely with the review by Gerald J. Nora. The book is first rate and does a fantastic job of showing the "real" anatomy as opposed to drawings where the artist takes some liberties. The text begins simple and builds upon it. The only down side is that the labels are not ordered in a top down fashion. For example, the labels may be: 3, 2, 4, 8, 7, 6, 5 which can be confusing. Overall the book is highly recommended as a reference to a traditional anatomy text.
Book Description
This classically organized regional atlas is based on the strikingly colorful yet realistic illustrations of the world-renowned Sobotta Atlas of Human Anatomy. Hallmarks of Dr. Clemente's atlas include its bright and realistically detailed illustrations, the wealth of accompanying diagnostic images, and numerous muscle tables.
Customer Reviews:
Required but disappointed.......2007-07-02
Was a required text, but many other classmates found different atlases that much easier to use. We didn't follow dissection as listed in the text so it seemed pointless. Might be useful if implemented properly but it's now collecting dust.
Anatomy Text.......2007-01-11
This book has incredible detail for each of the body systems and is an invaluable resource for those people who are looking for a reference book to study the systems for anatomy and physiology. It's a good book to keep for future studies in medicine and I recommend it for pre-med students.
Excellent product.......2007-01-09
This is an excellent detailed pictoral of the human anatomy, like a textbook really, but with captions and descriptions that can be easily comprehended by a non-medical person. The quality of the volume is well worth the cost: the graphic images are clear and true, almost photographic; the print is refined and easy to read; the pages themselves are substantial, not flimsy at all. Want to see how your body works, what you've got goin' on under the skin? Take a look.
Excellent and well organized.......2004-05-14
This atlas is arranged and presented in a way that makes all of its information easily accessible and easy to find. All systems and structures of the human anatomy are shown in various formats, from cutaways to x-rays, with such a wide variety of helps that it's hard to imagine valid criticism. Tables, legends, indexes, brief verbal descriptions of the pertinent physiological functions, etc. It's practically impossible to get lost in this well-organized atlas, and beyond its obvious uses for medical students etc., it's an indispensible part of my library for transcription.
The best atlas for a student's needs.......2001-10-28
You couldn't ask more from an atlas. It has good drawings, radiographs, accompayning text, and muscle charts. The pictures are easy to follow, and don't crowd the structures with excessive labeling (Netter). What's the big deal with the beauty of his drawings anyway? I purchased a Clemente atlas without the CD and reccommend it that way unless you want to pay twice as much to have the same information in two forms.

Customer Reviews:
Get a REAL atlas.......2006-03-10
If you have the Tortora book, then you do not need this atlas. I would highly, highly recommend that you do not waste money on this atlas. Spend a few more dollars and get a copy of the Netter's atlas for students. Trying to use this atlas in my human anatomy lab/class (intro) has been nothing but annoying. Many important landmarks are overlooked and I have repeatedly had to refer to Netter's to figure out where landmarks are. Avoid this atlas and save your money and frustration.
Good complement for any Osteology class and affordable.......2005-10-14
This book is a very good companion if you are using osteology blocks with pictures in black and white. Is just 32 pages and the information is limited, however the pictures are great and allow you to see the little details that escape from black and white photos in other books. Did I mention the price? Is very affordable for struggling students like me.
A Must for any Pre-med and Med student.......2004-10-04
I'm a pre-med student, and when I first heard about this book from my professor, I was a bit skeptical that it would help me or anyone that wasn't already in med school. But when I got it, it was clear and easy to follow. The pictures weren't some badly drawn figurines, or a mess of grey, unidentifiable body parts, they were real photographs of the skeleton which were, thank goodness!, easy on the eyes. I might not be in med school yet, but I'm making sure I have this book with me. As a revision and reference book, this one is the greatest!

The Human Body in Living Color........2007-08-01
It is a wonderful book for anyone interested to learn more about the human body and to see its intricade working. I never thought of the human body as an entity put together with so many working parts.
The beautiful drawings are a work of art and need special attention. Through this work of art I appreciate my body much more. A wonderful creation.
I would refer this book to anyone, who wants my opinion.

Nursing students beware!!.......2005-02-17
This book would be good if you are going into a low level medical feild where you do not go into great depths, or for kids or possibly high school students. However, I bought this for nursing school and could not even use it. It doesn't go into enough depth with bones, muscles, nerves, ect.. I was going to use this for an anatomy and physiology class not even an actual nursing class, and it was just useless. If you are buying for nursing school, I reccommend going into a book store to look around for what you want first, then come here and see if you can get it cheaper. You get what you pay for!
Excellent reference material for medical/paramedic classes.......1999-04-02
Graphics are excellent with amazing clarity. This book has been tremendously popular with paramedic and EMT instructors and technicians in my area. I bought my copy to help with my EMT Advanced Life Support class and found it extremely helpful with the anatomy requirements. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in anatomy.
