The fifth edition has been carefully revised to improve still further the photographic content and thereby make this resource even more useful. Fifty new dissection photographs have been added to the book. Positive user feedback has prompted us to add more Clinical Notes - there are now 300 examples of these to highlight the clinical correlates of the anatomic structures. The layout of every single page has been revised to ensure maximum accessibility. In addition, more orientational diagrams in the form of surface anatomy photographs - and extra imaging and laparoscopy - have been added.
