  Anatomy is a fundamental subject for first year medical students who are required to know where everything is and what it is called. This forms the basis of examination at the end of the first year. This study of anatomy is achieved through illustrated texts, the study of skeletons, bottled specimens, and the dissection of human cadavers. At this point the thought that anatomical origins or interrelationships might be clinically remote. However, be it for the palpation of the body cavity, the interpretation of a CT cross section, the location of an organ to biopsy, or listening to lung sounds, an understanding of anatomy in its clinical context is essential. This is exactly what Professor Ellis provides in this highly successful revision text.
