Book Reviews of Grant's Dissector (Tank, Grant's Dissector)
Book Review: Big help with Gross Anatomy
Summary: 4 Stars
Grant's Dissector is an excellent resource for gross anatomy lab. It includes step-by-step instructions on the most efficient way to dissect your assigned cadaver. It saves time and helps you to spare important features for viewing. Though Grant's Dissector does include some basic illustrations, you'll still need a good atlas.Book Review: Grant's Dissector
Summary: 5 Stars
Very awesome book to get for anatomy. Has helped my lab group and me a lot during the dissection of the human body.Book Review: Grant's Dissector
Summary: 4 Stars
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.Book Review: Great Book - if you use it for what it is
Summary: 5 Stars
I am an M1 at UAMS, and Dr. Tank (the author of this text) is actually our Anatomy professor. The purpose of this dissector is to provide a concise, easily understood method for dissection while in lab. The images are intentionally simplistic with the understanding that there are other references (such as Rohen or Netter, which is what I use) that provide more detailed at-home references while studying. Tank actually recommends his grease dissector, with 2 other grease atlases per table in lab. Though the order of dissection may not make sense as you work through, it is planned with the intention of preserving reference structures for later dissections. I've completed a cadaveric anatomy course twice now, and actually hated this dissector the first time I used it. However, I realized that if I took note of the strucures and Clinical Corrs in the order/ way explained by the dissector, I was able to memorize the material more efficiently. THIS IS NOT AN ATLAS - it is a dissector, and as such, I think it serves its purpose.Book Review: Great Product, Great Seller
