The six tapes in this remarkable and beautifully produced video anatomy atlas explore the fundamental structures of the Musculoskeletal System, the Head and Neck, and the Internal Organs.

Tape 1: The Upper Extremity
Tape 2: The Lower Extremity
Tape 3: The Trunk
Tapes 4 and 5: The Head and Neck
Tape 6: The Internal Organs

The Tapes show 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 the viewer experience it as a three dimensional object. Acland's Video 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 video. As each new structure is shown, its name appears on the screen. There is a self-testing feature at the end of each section. A visible time signal shows where you are in the program. The reference booklet gives you both an alphabetic and a chronological index, with time locations for each structure.

Approximately 150 minutes each. Video packages cannot be returned once the package has been opened.
