Summary:

Part of a three-volume series for veterinary students, this atlas contains color photos and labeled drawings of dissections from the Royal Veterinary College, U. of London, that illustrate the topographical anatomy of the horse and the position and relationships of bones, muscles, nerves, blood vessels, and viscera, organized by body region. Ashdown (veterinary anatomy, U. of London, UK) and Done (veterinary pathology, U. of Glasgow, UK) present dissections in the order they occur in their demonstration classes and views that would be seen in a routine clinical examination. This edition includes more radiographs and CT and MRI images, clinical notes, and an accompanying website with a searchable version of the text, quizzes, and self-assessment questions.
