23) not great
Gray's is fairly common assigned reading for anatomy, and probably should not be. On the plus side, there are lots of pictures so the actual reading is fairly light, and there are a few common clinical correlates. However, in my opinion, it also does not contain enough details and tends to be very repetitive. There's almost no physiology covered (as might be expected) but the words are simply a description of the graphics. In other words, if you'd rather have anatomy taught visually, there are atlases with better detail and drawings. If you learn anatomy better by anatomical descriptors, then this is your book.

22) Promising and different
Pros:
Good organization of the material
Chapters are structured in a way that helps learning
Images are unique in their approach to demonstrating the anatomy

Cons:
I've heard from several unrelated sources that the book has lots of inaccuracies in it (I've yet to find one)
Many of the diagrams are oblique views that take some time to figure out the orientation and then relate it to anatomical position

21) A easy way to study anatomy
A very clear way to study and undestand a very dificult and complex subjet- The pictures are very clear and didactic.

19) could be better, could be worse
As a medical student I often find myself spending more time with this book than I do anything else in my life. With that said, the book does an adequate job of making difficult parts of the body seem approachable and understandable. There is a lot of over-lap between different sections which can be a benefit and a problem, It is beneficial because you go over the material again, which helps reinforce the concepts. It sucks, because you have to waste time reading the same material two and maybe even three times. Overall, this is a decent book that present the concepts well and to the point, and for the most part this is a great book. Even though I have a few quarks about this book, I would recommend this to others.
