Pocketbook of Hand and Upper Extremity Anatomy: Primus Manus features exquisitely detailed full-color photographs of dissections and line drawings of all major anatomic entities. The written descriptions of anatomy are in bulleted format to allow quick access to the material. The book also describes clinical correlations for major diseases and includes various mnemonic devices.
"This book provides readers with exacting information on hand, wrist, and forearm anatomy as would be visualized with surgical dissection. The photos and illustrations are impeccable for anyone other than experienced surgeons who already have such a mental imprint...This is really a pocketbook, as it is labeled. It is a useful quick reference that residents or medical students might keep in their lab coat pocket. For this purpose, it is superb...It serves its purpose well and is very useful for its intended audience."
