What do you recommend for an anatomy text of the lower limb (or antomy in general)? I like colour pics.

I have Clinically Orientated Anatomy by Moore and Dalley. Find it very good, nice pictures.

Regards,

THE bible is:

Anatomy of the Foot & Ankle: Descriptive, Topographic, Functional by SK Sarrafian.

Another of the great Armenian foot intellectuals...

No longer in print, you can get it 2nd hand on Amazon, but its not cheap.

Don't waste your money on anything else!

I checked on Amazon & I'll have to "waste" my money on something else. Sarrafian, 4 new & used, from $595 to $895.

Clemente's anatomy book is well reviewed.

I did warn you.

Suffice to say, you get what you pay for, and it is a sought after seminal text that is unmatched (IMHO). Worth every cent in the long run, and in economic terms, arguably worth about as much as a postgrad degree in podiatry...

I would happily give up 10 of my $200 textbooks for this one alone.

Cool Re: Anatomy Text

Totally agree with LL. Sarrafian is the gold standard.
Slightly inferior but accessible is Draves' Anatomy of the Lower Extremity -
http://www.netstoreusa.com/mnbooks/068/0683026518.shtml

or try a cheap alternative 'Foot & Lower Extremity Anatomy to Color & Study'
by Ray Poritsky -
http://www.amazon.com/Lower-Extremit.../dp/1560534818
If you like colour pictures, just get some nice coloured pencils and create your own. Stay inside the lines.

Borrow Sarrafian from your local library & make notes/ photocopy.

Hi Mark,
I really like my Draves' - not in colour though.
Have you considered CD - Primal pictures is good.
