I am a practicing, Canadian surgeon in a teaching hospital and University.
For the medical student, physician, surgical resident and practicing surgeon ... there is simply no better atlas!
This was one of the first atlases to be published in the English speaking world - although there were quite good atlases published in Germany for severely years previously. Professor Grant was the foremost anatomist of his generation and his brilliant textbook of Anatomy "Method of Anatomy" was published in the 1940s. Professor Grant continued to write the "Method of Anatomy" until the 1970s ... and then, for some inexplicable reason, subsequent authors of the book changed the
character of the book completely, until it petered out in the 1980s. The "Method of Anatomy" was the first book to make anatomy a deductive, interesting and exciting science. It is no longer in print, but if you can get hold of one of the copies authored by Grant, it will immediately capture your imagination.
The "Atlas" was made to accompany the "Method of Anatomy." As such, it contained - and still contains - much from the cadaveric dissections in Prof. Grant's anatomy lab in Toronto and his accompanying descriptions are brief, original and brilliant.
I am very pleased to report that the editors and publishers of this latest iteration of Grant's Atlas have not only striven to keep to the spirit of the original, but have also prominently featured a tribute to Professor Grant.
In addition, the present editors have brought in new material related to surface anatomy and medical imaging.
My advice to the present editors - please keep up the excellent work, and stay true to the spirit of the original!
