Published in July 2005 (3rd Edition) this is probably the best anatomy book for manual therapists, obviously it covers all of the basics but also gives you detailed instructions on how to find 101 muscles, 206 bones, 23 ligaments, 91 bony landmarks and much more. This is the anatomy book that reaches the parts others fail to reach! Presented in an informal easy and fun to use, the Trail Guide will really help take your understanding of the body to another level. It is not just another dry text but uses the body as your learning tool. You are taken through a series of guided trails, helping you identify the various important landmarks, you're given instructions on movement to help feel the contraction and actions of the muscles.
The text is annotated throughout with notes of interest, alternative palpation routes, areas of caution and hints on pronunciation and meaning for the many structures.
