Excerpt: Chiropractic educators are insatiable consumers of images. The demand arises from a constant desire to enhance and improve our courseware. The reality is a brave new world where students can, with a couple of mouse clicks, find educational product that they see as superior to the managed, reviewed, and integrated product delivered within formal educational content.
Educators are also under pressure from their managers to maintain currency with their teaching materials and, in an increasing number of institutions, to provide these in real-time electronic format, online. Any new publication that promises an Aladdin’s cave of resources to help the academic is warmly received.
And so it is with Thieme’s new series of anatomy atlases. There are three in the series: General Anatomy and Musculoskeletal System (reviewed by this author elsewhere),1 Neck and Internal Organs, and this volume. As with all of Thieme’s work, this current offering is intellectually delicious, visually delectable, and intellectually delightful.
