Really good anatomical textbook - super helpful for teaching human anatomy
This book is the recommended reading for MBChB course.
We use GRAY's ANATOMY for students already for several years. The new edition is a good improvement on the previous edition.

Great base for learning anatomy
Hello, I am very impressed with the books I have read so far . They help me a lot in teaching my students. I also recommend them to use these textbooks, because I consider them the best they can work with. I will definitely recommend them for my next academic years. And I can't wait to read another textbook of you. You are the best one! Thank you very much! Best wishes
A;ready provided feedback on the hadcopy
Provides a much deeper level of understanding
Great images
One of the two main recommended anatomy textbooks for medical students on our course
Gray's Anatomy textbook is easy to read and clinically relevant. The practical applications of anatomical concepts through unique coverage of surface anatomy and correlative diagnostic images helps students to understand different clinical cases. The schematic drawings for key structures are ideal for a quick initial understanding of the anatomy and hemodynamics mechanism for different diseases, which is very helpful for the first contact between students and patients.
Fantastic source, will likely remain central to Medical and Dental teaching amongst institutes for the foreseeable future.
An essential textbook for any student of Athletic Therapy and Training
We now subscribe to Clinical Key and so students have electronic access through our Imperial library
Good core anatomy book for medical students
Really useful anatomy book for our PG Dip students. The format of working through the systems is really beneficial and students seem to learn well with this technique.
1.i like the Neuroanatomy content of 81 pages -really useful addition . Hand drawn images are very few ...................i expected many more .. 2.Grays Systemic anatomy e chapters i was not able to access -that would be very useful for integrated teaching
And core textbook for applied anatomy students
excellent clear resource
An essential book and bible for many of the healthcare disciplines.
Good text for understanding of A&P
Really good resource that covers majority of important topics for medical anatomy teaching.
Great for level 4 students
Our key text for anatomy for physio students is "Anatomy and Human Movement" because it is written in the context of physiotherapy. However, this edition of Gray's Anatomy for Students is highly recommended, particularly in view of the clarity and quality of the presentation (especially the images).
A must have book for Allied health Professionals
The new radiological images has added another dimension to the book
Excellent resource for all students year 1 through 4 and post graduation
This text offers students a good level of insight into anatomy and physiology that many other texts do not offer
Clear diagrams, perfect level for med and applied anatomy UG students
Great book for anatomical study and relation to investigational procedures such as X-ray
Good introductory book for anatomy. Appropriate for undergraduate medical students but also useful for Biomedical science undergraduates. Provides a basic overview for regional anatomy and links clinical applications well. For more detailed knowledge, as required at MSc level, I would recommend using this in conjunction with other anatomical text books to ensure comprehensive knowledge as the Gray's Anatomy for students does not give enough in depth information. However, as said previously, for undergraduate level anatomy this book is certainly a very useful one to own.
Clear, concise and relevant to all students undertaking a healthcare undergraduate or postgraduate course. This is an essential book for your bookshelf which offers core learning that will be used time and time again.
Gray's Anatomy for Students, Edition 4 is a well written, well organized and beautifully illustrated textbook and anatomy atlas for medical students. The color illustrations are very accurate and detailed. They are a great help in learning anatomy from scratch. If you look up the course of a given artery, vein or nerve, it turns out that the information and the details are spread over several sections of the book. Nevertheless, this faithful book is still one of the best anatomy textbooks ever published in its clarity and easy-of-use. I do recommend this textbook for courses in human anatomy.

Gray's Anatomy has been a great book and a major resource for students and educators as well to find key images for each chapter. The tables which summarize key information are really useful.
A well known and revered textbook that students will take with them from their first lecture into post-qualification life. Very highly recommend.
Definitely the best of the anatomy books I have reviewed. This text should be considered the gold standard for any healthcare course.
Good supplemental text for students.
