Am I the only person who prefers Grant's over Netter? I think so. Netter is dynamic and beautiful, but the number of anatomical structures he labels on one image is baffling. Whereas, Grant's provides a plethora of images, with various angles and tissue layers, in greater detail.
Additionally, the entire cranial nerves chapter is superior to Netter's. Anyone should be willing to admit that.

যদিও নিটার'টাই বেশি চলে......তবুও আমার কাছে মনে হয় , এটাই ভালো ।

পরীক্ষায় পাশের জন্য নিটারের বিকল্প হয়তো এখনও নাই ; কেননা, মাসল এটাচমেন্ট কিংবা বোন/ভিসেরা মার্কিং -সব এক পৃষ্ঠায় দেখানো আছে ।

অন্যদিকে,
গ্রান্টসএর সুবিধা হলো .....আপনি যদি ছবিগুলো একএক করে দেখে যান , তবে পুরো সিস্টেটা মাথায় গেঁথে যাবে ; আর, 'চিকিত্সা বিজ্ঞানে ' মাথায় গেঁথে যাওয়াটাই প্রয়োজন ।

Grant's Atlas has some of the best conceptual illustrations of the body of any atlas I have read. They are clear and are loaded with details that can truly buttress anatomy classes. However, there is very, very little text, and the text that the authors do include are mere descriptions of the illustrations. When studying anatomy, Grant's is very helpful if you need to look up a structure and clearly see its features and relationships to other features of the body. But when you're trying to learn by visualization - which at least in my experience is probably the best way to learn all of this information - I don't find Grant's to be very helpful. It's also not very expansive on the functional importance of structures and how their dysfunctions can cause serious problems.

As far as anatomy goes, lots of illustrations from different views, so it's good for that, and, I think, better (though not absolutely required) than general anatomy & physiology books, but I haven't seen Netter's atlas (though I love his drawings), so I'm not sure if it's 5-star worthy.

This was another great trash-pick. WONDERFUL illustrations in this book - I have used it for reference for more than one art project.

Love this book. I'm still a pre med student but this book helped me a lot with anatomy. The illustrations are really in good quality and very clear.
