Why don't you give exact delivery time?
Delivery time is estimated on our previous experiences. We give estimations only, because we order from outside Hungary, and the delivery time mainly depends on how quickly the publisher supplies the book. Faster or slower deliveries both happen, but we do our best to supply as quickly as possible.

Short description:
Functional anatomy is about the structure and function of the body in its living state. Today's student of anatomy needs a grounding in the basics of human anatomy taught in such a way that it can rapidly be recalled during clinical training and can provide a basis for future study. This book encourages the student to observe precisely and to record the structure and macroscopic functions of the living body. The majority of observations are made with the eye or the hand,
complemented by modern imaging techniques, the study of prosections, and a limited amount of dissection.
Long description:
A sound understanding of how the body is built and functions remains fundamental to all aspects of medicine. Most diagnoses have to be arrived at from an examination of the intact living body and so an understanding of the functional anatomy of the living body and how it should be examined remains a critical skill for practitioners.
Designed in line with changes in the medical curriculum, the Oxford Textbook of Functional Anatomy: Thorax and Abdomen delivers the essential anatomical information needed by today's medical student. The book will also prove invaluable to sports medicine students, physiotherapists, health professionals working in musculoskeletal medicine, and radiologists. Content is strictly limited to that which aids understanding of the principles of body structure or is useful in everyday
clinical practice. The book emphasizes the anatomy of the living subject, and to underline the increasing importance of non-invasive imaging, there are many computerized tomograms and magnetic resonance images.
Ideal for medical students throughout their course and future career, the Oxford Textbook of Functional Anatomy offers:
* A modern approach to functional anatomy emphasising the living body and new non-invasive imaging techniques
* 200 colour line illustrations and photographs to aid understanding of the principles of body structure in everyday clinical practice
* Clinical applications of anatomical information are highlighted in 'clinical boxes' thought the text
* Self-assessment questions to stimulate thought and problem-solving
Designed to meet the needs of the 21st century medical curriculum, the Oxford Textbook of Functional Anatomy delivers a sound working knowledge of the structural basis of body function in an accessible and user-friendly way.
