Dr. Robert Acland's DVD Atlas of Human Anatomy shows you true
images of real, exquisitely dissected human anatomical specimens, in three
dimensions. As the camera moves from one viewpoint to another, the specimen
appears to rotate in space, letting you experience it as a three dimensional
object.

Acland's DVD Atlas uses fresh, unembalmed specimens that retain
the color, texture, mobility--and beauty--of the living human body. A concise
synchronized narration runs throughout the program. As each new structure is
shown, its name appears on the screen. There is a self-testing feature at the
end of each section

Volume 1

Volume 1 puts your understanding of the upper extremity on a
firm foundation. It has three sections:
1) the shoulder
2) the arm and
forearm,
3) the hand.
Each section shows first the bones and the
movements they can make, then the joints and the ligaments that limit their
movements, and then the muscles and the movements they produce. Once these major
structures are
understood, the blood vessels and nerves are added to the
picture

Volume 2

Volume 2 puts your understanding of the lower extremity on a
firm foundation. It has four sections:
1) the hip
2) the knee
3) the
ankle
4) the foot.
Each section shows first the bones and the movements
they can make, then the joints and the ligaments that limit their movements, and
then the muscles and the movements they produce. Once these major structures are
understood, the blood vessels and nerves are added to the
picture
