About the author

I trained as a physician in London after Peace Corps teaching (VSO) in the jungles of Sarawak, Borneo.I intended to become a surgeon but was side-tracked into anatomy after writing "Clinical Anatomy of Practical Procedures". This led to a British Fulbright Scholarship to the University of Iowa in 1976. I was Clinical Anatomist at UCL(London)for 15 years and then held the same post at The University of Cambridge before moving to Warwick in 2007. I am a Life Fellow of Girton College,Cambridge and also do 2 days a week in "real metropolitan inner-city medicine" as as an NHS GP.I worked as an anatomical consultant for WHO in Alexandria, and have examined and lectured doctors and surgeons worldwide.Since 1993 I've been Professor at SGU,Grenada where I'm known for my passions of Scuba ,jungle hiking and lecturing on the history of art.Also since 2005 I have been Extraordinary Professor at Pretoria University where one of my co-authors works.In 1997 I was awarded the BMA electronic publishing prize and the IAMS prize for the "Interactive Skeleton CD-ROM".

In 2006 the American Assoc. of Clinical Anatomists recognized my contributions as its "Honoured Member" - for authorship of anatomical textbooks and electronic resources in many languages" In 2007 I moved to Warwick post-graduate medical school where I was awarded the top teaching award (WATE - award)in my first year.I received an educational grant of 2.0 million dollars from government with which I have recently set up the West Midlands Surgical Training Centre which is a cadaver operative suite and plastinate teaching centre for international health professionals.Awarded nthe FHEA and national teaching fellowship 2011 and in 2012 was anatomical adviser to "Leonardo-anatomist" an exhibition at Buckingham palace where I lectured.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly recommended as the best atlas that I have seen on the the human body
Format: PaperbackVerified PurchaseThis book has the best graphics of any human body book that I have seen. The indicative pointers to the graphics are plentiful and accurate with additional description. Multiple views of body parts leaves little to the imagination. The author, Prof. Peter Abrahams, does a wonderful job of explaining. He is an anatomy specialist with over 30 years of experience. His book is broken down into major sections, vis a vis, the head, neck, thorax, upper limbs, abdomen, reproductive system, pelvis, lower limbs, and the whole body system. It has nice large letters for the topics at the top of each page, and that makes perusing a breeze. Colorization to emphasize body parts is top class.
It is a soft back with 9" x 11-3/4" pages. The index is almost 9 pages long, and covers most topics imaginable. It has glossy spill-resistant coated pages and covers that hold up really well.
