The text is very thorough and complete. It begins with basic anatomy and progresses in a logical manner throughout its course. Numerous diagrams are used to illustrate the discussion within the text, in addition to the innumerable images on the CD-ROM. References are provided at the end of the chapters and range literally over the past 100 years. The text is informative on all topics but at the same time concise and to the point. If and when terminology differs between European and American societies, this fact is acknowledged and discussed. The overall typography and page format is sensible and eliminates confusion and eyestrain. _____________________________________________________________________________________________ THE CD : The image database is immense. It represents "the best of the teaching films the author acquired over a 30 year period, supplemented by others which have been donated or lent by others to the author." All modalities in radiology are represented, as well as clinical photographs and pathologic specimens. The browser for image viewing is quite user friendly. The program even has a Record feature that allows the user to copy files (for educational purposes) to a computer hard drive or disk.
