    I want to keep my teaching resources fresh so can any students tell me what books they are currently using in Anatomy please. Is any one book top of the pops, or is it a case of still lugging 5 books to the pub to revise?

    Cheers:drinks

    'Gray's Anatomy'.

    it is heavy though and will def require a table at the pub.
     
  3. Thanks Page.

    Grays still the best? Anyone using Grays should beware that some of the names have changed though so always use a more up to date text to cross refer.

    Thanks for the link Simon, will have a read through that one, see if my teaching resources can be freshened.

    Any others? Any students out there if you have a favourite that you are using currently or found particularly good I would love to know. I can point my students into the right direction.

    Regards

    If you are a podiatry educator, then Anatomy of the Foot & Ankle: Descriptive, Topographic, Functional by Sarrafian (as Simon points out) should be the first, last and most critically important anatomy text that you direct all of your students to. I cannot emphasise it enough.

    Nothing comes close. General anatomy texts such as Gray's are about as useful as seeing GP for biomechanical foot pathology.

  5. Thanks for that LL. My students are general Anatomy/Physiology students and also students that have a specific interest in the lower leg, med students/Physios etc. I then try to convert all of them to go into Podiatry! I quite agree with your opinions on GP's which is why I try to get them at base level. GP's-don't get me started!!!

    I have ordered my book, it wasn't recommended when I was at college which is why this site is so important.
