Since 1940, when Dr. J.C. Boileau Grant created the first lab manual based on Grant's method of dissection, Grant's Dissector has clearly established its authority and preeminence as the "gold standard" of gross anatomy dissection manuals. In the last edition, the material was streamlined to focus on more accurate, specific and clear steps, based on market conditions and feedback. This edition continues to focus on the trend of reduced lab hours yet maintains the quality and reliability of Grant's original manual. Grant's Dissector, Fourteenth Edition features over 40 new figures to provide consistent appearance and include additional details, and is cross-referenced to the leading anatomy atlases, including Grant's, Netter's, Rohen, and Clemente.

Great book, annoying binding:
Excellent dissection guide for a cadaveric anatomy course. Buy two, one as a "greaser" and one to keep at home to study from. Grant's has simple schematics to help you locate structures as you dissect, as well as references to Grant's Atlas, Netter's, Clemente ("regional atlas") and Rohen (photographic). I own them all and love them all. One problem: the binding is that terrible metal-coil fall-apart-the-instant-you-open-the-book style. Try to find one that is book-bound.
The book of dissection:
I recently used this book in an anatomy class where we dissected human cadavers. This is book is helpful in providing steps to go through as you dissect. However the steps are very detailed and it could use more pictures to follow.
Great seller, but 12th edition:
The book turned out to be the 12th edition which was too old for my need, however the seller was excellent about letting me return it and promptly giving me a full refund.
Grant's Dissector:
Very awesome book to get for anatomy. Has helped my lab group and me a lot during the dissection of the human body.
