Acknowledgments

First, we would like to collectively thank those who agreed
to examine earlier drafts of the book-anatomists, educators, and student members of the editorial review board
from around the world. Your input was invaluable.
We'd also like to thank Richard Tibbitts and Paul Richardson for their skill in turning our visual ideas into a
reality that is not only a foundation for the acquisition of
anatomical knowledge, but also is beautiful.
Thanks must also go to Madelene Hyde, Bill Schmitt,
Rebecca Gruliow, John Casey, and all the team at Elsevier
for guiding us through the preparation of this book.
We'd also like to thank Professor Richard A. Buckingham of the Abraham Lincoln School of Medicine, University of Illinois for the provision of Fig. 8 . 1 1 4B. Finally,
because we worked separately, distanced by, in some cases,
thousands of miles, there are various people who gave local
support, whom we would like to make mention of individually. We've gratefully listed them here:

Dr. Leonard Epp, Dr. Carl Morgan, Dr. Robert Shellhamer, and Dr. Robert Cardell who profoundly influenced my career as a scientist and an educator.

Richard L. Drake

Dr. Murray Morrison, Dr. Joanne Matsubara, Dr. Brian
Westerberg, Laura Hall, and Jing Cui, for contributing
images for the chapter on the head and neck.
Dr. Bruce Crawford and Logan Lee, for help with images
for the surface anatomy of the upper limb.
Professor Elizabeth Akesson and Dr. Donna Ford, for
their enthusiastic support and valuable critiques.
Dr. Sam Wiseman, for contributing surgical and other
images in the abdomen and head and neck chapters.

A. Wayne Vogl

Dr. Sahar Nasseri (senior specialist registrar) for help
with the images and text and adding critical analysis
on modern imaging.
Drs. J. Healy, J. Lee, G. Rajeswarren, R. Pearce and
B. Roberton for their support and constructive
criticism.
The radiology staff at Chelsea and Westminster Hospital
and The Fortius Clinic.
In particular, Mr. Andrew Williams, FRCS, whose
relentless and unflagging support has been invaluable
(and he mended my leg!) .

Adam W M. Mitchell

Dr. Sydney Friedman, Dr. Elio Raviola, and Dr. Charles
Slonecker, for their inspiration and support and for
instilling in me a passion for the discipline of Anatomy.

Dedications

To my wife, Cheryl, who has supported me; and my parents, who have guided me.

-Richard L. Drake

To my family, to my professional colleagues and role models, and to my students-this book is for you.

-A. Wayne Vogl

To Cathy, Max, and Elsa

-Adam W M. Mitchell
