This book provides an update for medical students who

need to keep abreast of recent developments. I hope also it

will be usefu! for those preparing for postgraduate

examination.

This book is designed to provide a concise summary of

anatomy, which medical students and others can use as

study guide by itself or with readings in current textbooks,

monographs, and reviews.

Summaries of relevant anatomical considerations are

included in every chapter, taking into account that this book

is written primarily for those who have some knowledge of

anatomy and physiology.
