 Quirky Mnemonics that Stick March 20, 2004

I used this book when studying for my medical school gross anatomy course. When I first read over the sections I was studying in class, I thought that the mnemonic devices were somewhat silly and did not try to depend much on them. However, when I found myself in my first written and practical exams, I began reciting some of the seemingly ridiculous analogies from the book. It turned out to be an excellent help. Clinical Anatomy Made Ridiculously Simple is divided into 17 chapters organized by systems. There are two tables of contents, one that follows the systemic outline of the book and another that jumps around pages but is organized into regions of the body. This makes it easy to approach the book from either the systems or regional study. It touched on virtually every aspect that we covered in class. It is easy to understand and will help the reader when he/she has gotten bogged down in anatomical jargon. Although one should not depend on this book a sole text for the study of anatomy, it would make an excellent companion to any anatomy course.

After "Microbiology Made ...", this is the best book in this series. Most medical graduates don't like studying anatomy for USMLE, but this book will really help. Excellent pictures, mnemonics and stories will help you to remember important facts without memorizing. If you have any doubt about this book, just read "Brachial Plexus" section.

Book is poorly organized into systems rather than regions. It's a little too ridiculously simple especially for medical students. There no are review questions to test yourself. I picked up a couple of ideas for remembering structures but otherwise would stick to the Board Review Series Anatomy review. Might be good for undergraduate anatomy though.

For sure this book is not a Netter or Moore but it do has some great drawings that can save you great amount of time in learning basic anatomy points.
It also covers some pathology subjects and that`s great!
