The Pocket Atlas Of Human Anatomy A Reference For Students Of Physical Therapy Medicine Sports And Bodywork 2nd Chris Jarmey by Chris Jarmey 9781623177355, 9781913088316, 9781623177348, 1623177359, 1913088316, 1623177340, 2021039177 instant download after payment.
This concise, pocket-sized guide is a full-color on-the-go
reference for students and practitioners of anatomy, massage, physical
therapy, chiropractics, medicine, nursing, and physiotherapy. This
second edition is more comprehensive, and now includes the skin, and the
cardiovascular system, and more.
Chapters 1 through 7 explain
anatomical orientation, tissues, bones, the axial and appendicular
skeletons, joints, and skeletal muscles and fascia. Subsequent chapters
detail the four major muscle groups with composite illustrations of each
region’s deep and superficial muscles in both anterior and posterior
views. Color tables show each muscle’s origin, insertion, innervation,
and action.
A final chapter by Thomas W. Myers
outlines myofascial meridians, presenting a map of fascial tracks and
illustrating how they wind longitudinally through series of muscles.
This new approach to structural patterning has far-reaching implications
for effective movement training and manual therapy treatment.
Three
appendices illustrate cutaneous nerve supply and dermatomes (Appendix
1), the major skeletal muscles (Appendix 2), including detailed charts
of the main muscles involved in movement, and the remaining body systems
(Appendix 3).
“Impressive artwork throughout—far better than
many of the current textbooks.”—Dr. Robert Whitaker, MA MD MChir FRCS
