Used it for Graduate level Anatomy:
I bought this for a Grad level A&P course. It's one strength was showing a more precise presentation of how structures look in the human body/cadaver, but it had some downfalls.

The best dissection atlas out there.:
This review is from the perspective of a first year medical student in Gross Anatomy. I own both Atlas of Atlas of Human Anatomy: With Netteranatomy.com (Netter Basic Science)) and Grant's Atlas of Anatomy, and what I've found is that they really cannot be compared. They are both 5 stars if you use them properly. Grant's Atlas shines when it is in the dissection room with you. The drawings are more realistic, and more often than not muscles are reflected out of view rather than being omitted completely... more info
awesome atlas:
awesome atlas. great "teaching atlas" with explanations to go along with the pictures. a great way to go through each system, as if a teacher were guiding you through each structure/organ. also, incudes a CD-ROM that can be installed on your computer, so you can review the atlas contents and it also includes a "quizzing" feature with labels removed.
