To Those Who Bequeath Their Bodies to Science Hic locus est ubi mors gaudet succurrere vitae “This is the place where death delights in helping life” —Inscription above the Anatomical Theatre of Bologna This atlas of human anatomy begins by paying due homage and returning thanks to those who freely bequeath their bodies to anatomy. Such donations testify to an admirable, unselfish, and idealistic sense of sacrifice, and nothing can compen- sate for the invaluable service rendered to science and to society. Anatomy and medicine owe these individuals a tremendous debt of gratitude. By bequeathing their bodies, they enable students to learn through observation—even now, at the beginning of the twenty-first century, there is no substitute for this. Even beyond death, these altruistic people help the living—students, physicians, and patients alike. This is how the above inscription should be interpreted, and students should endeavor to be worthy of these voluntary and generous donations by respecting the dead as well as by working hard and learning eagerly.

Since then, this venerable atlas has undergone several major revisions to keep pace with modern medical knowledge. The fifth edition published in the year 2000 has been completely revised and supplemented by Dr. Petra Kopf-Maier. This classic medical reference is now available in a single concise volume designed to be accessible for general readers, students of anatomy, and allied health professionals such as nurses, physical therapists, sports trainers, hospital social workers, and medical secretaries and transcriptionists. In more than six hundred fifty superb anatomical drawings and paintings, The Color Atlas of Human Anatomy details the complex organ systems of the human body, offering clear and extensive labels and instructive color specifically designed to be easily understand- able for beginners yet comprehensive enough for more advanced users. As medical knowledge and technology advance, curricula in universities and medical schools have expanded to include the study of new diagnostic techniques, such as computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and ultrasonography. In addition, the study of microscopic anatomy, physiological chemistry, and bio- chemistry have all taken on ever-greater importance over the past century, some- times at the expense of traditional macroscopic anatomy. Yet it is only when students possess precise knowledge of human anatomical structures that they can properly interpret the information gathered by new imaging technologies. Students of anatomy at every level are thus challenged to build a solid understanding of human anatomy in order to maximize their skills within their chosen discipline. To that end, The Color Atlas of Human Anatomy has been designed as a practi- cal reference and as a supplement to anatomy texts. The volume is organized by anatomical region, echoing the method of study most common in biology and anatomy courses, and is complete with an exhaustive, twenty-page subject index. Nomenclature throughout the book conforms to the International Anatomical Terminology adopted in 1998 by the International Federation of Associations of Anatomists. For those devoted to the study of human anatomy as well as those simply fascinated by the workings of the human body, this invaluable atlas maps the complexities of organ systems with clarity and accuracy.
