 This is 'The Atlas', what more can be said? October 25, 2008

Netter's is the definitive anatomy atlas, period.
Grant's, while in someways better, cannot hold a candle to Netter's art.
Rohen's is wonderful if you are studying for a gross anatomy practical exam because it presents structures exactly as you will have them presented. That said the limitations of dissection, preservation, tissue and gravity make it an inferior tool for visualizing the anatomy.
Acland's DVD atlas does a good job of presenting real structures (like Rohen) but in ideal ways (like Netter); however, the slow narration, questionable technical production quality, and downright creepy child in spandex are deal breakers.
The new Thieme atlas is quite good. It frankly negates Grant's value as it offers both richer text and labeling and superior art. The art is still not up to Netter's standards; however, having some accompanying text is quite valuable.
If you want to get Netter's with text then consider the flashcards which actually have surprisingly good text.
To return to the book under review: I have just compared all the other anatomy atlases I have to Netter's. Netter's is Netter's for a reason.

From what I have been able to gather online from the publisher (Elsevier), the Professional Edition is the only one that is supposed to come with the CD, which is purported to contain "over 80 of the most important anatomy illustrations from the book to use in presentations and lectures."
View the differences between the editions:
Professional 4th Edition:
http://www.us.elsevierhealth.com/product.jsp?isbn=9781416036999
Soft Cover 4th Edition:
http://www.us.elsevierhealth.com/product.jsp?isbn=9781416033851
It seems to be $60 more (at least, depending on where you look) for just for the CD (and the Hardcover opposed to the Soft Cover). The Professional Edition is more like a Reference book for a library, but hey maybe you need that. The 4th Ed. Soft Cover still comes with the ability to log onto "www.netteranatomy.com" for "Ninety plates from the book as well as a powerful and varied bank of ancillary material, unique to this atlas, are available online" through that Netter Anatomy Website. Through I'm fairly certain that the Professional Edition also comes with that ability.
Also in response to the earlier post, the Interactive Atlas of Human Anatomy 3.0 CD only comes with the 3rd Edition, not the newest 4th Edition. Here is the link just to that 3rd Edition CD:

Hope this helps.
Get this one January 20, 2008

This atlas offers you the complete body parts. You will never miss even just a single detail of the part you are looking or studying at. This is the best to use together along with Rohen and to compare with the real human structures for better understanding. Because real bodies are far more hard to understand compared to that of idealized drawings.
DPT Student, HIGHLY recommend this book! January 3, 2008

This book is a fantastic supplement to my studies! I highly recommend getting it to anyone in the health care industry. The hard cover is great because it looks more professional and is more durable. It's worth the extra money...either way, Netter's is a must have!
Excellent reference October 25, 2007

This book is excellent. The Netter drawings are the Gold standard. They give a complete anatomical picture of the body with musculature, nerves and organ systems.
