Laboratory Manual for Human Anatomy with Cadavers

Description

Designed for beginning anatomy students working with prosected human cadavers or models, this manual is built around a series of detailed diagrams suitable for coloring. Each chapter starts with a list of specific objectives for the exercises that follow, and then features a description section where anatomical structures are introduced, defined, described, identified, and then referenced to the accompanying illustrations and figures. Finally, an identification section provides instructions for identifying lists of specific structures, first on models and charts, then on the prepared human cadaver. Each chapter ends with interactive review exercises, new to this edition.

Victor P. Eroschenko completed both his undergraduate and graduate degrees at the University of California at Davis. He received his Bachelor of Arts degree in Zoology in 1961. Following graduation, he enlisted in the U.S. Army and spent the next three years in Germany. Eroschenko returned to the university in 1968 and received a Master of Science in Anatomy in 1970. In 1973, he was awarded the Ph.D. degree in Anatomy. That same summer, he accepted a faculty position at the University of Idaho in Moscow, Idaho to teach anatomical sciences to both medical students and undergraduate students. Since 1973, Eroschenko has been team-teaching Human Gross Anatomy and Medical Histology to freshman medical students in the WAMI Medical Program. He also teaches a one-semester course in Human Anatomy and Physiology to University of Idaho undergraduate students that major in Allied Health Sciences.

Eroschenko’s research interests lie in the area of Reproductive Toxicology. During his academic career, he has authored or co-authored over 40 scientific papers that were published in refereed national and international journals. He is also the author of the Laboratory Manual for Human Anatomy for use with Models and Prosected Cadavers, Second Edition. He was also the editor of the 6th edition of DiFiore’s Atlas of Normal Histology, and is presently the author of the Seventh and Eighth Editions of DiFiore’s Atlas of Histology with Functional Correlations. Eroschenko has just completed an interactive CD-ROM disk on Human Histology, which should be published in the near future.
