From Amazon/GoodReads reviews: "Great book for learning anatomy and palpation. Great for bodyworkers and physical therapists and good for artists, as well."; "Best anatomy book I have read so far. If you are in a movement or hands on field this book is awesome. I wish that we would have had this book in my college anatomy labs because it made it simple to locate and remember all of the muscles. I have a deeper understanding of skeletal and muscular anatomy then ever before."; "One of my most favorite books from massage school."
