Editorial Review:The Thirteenth edition of Grant's Dissector restores this renowned anatomy lab manual to its original purpose, which is to serve as a step-by-step manual for dissection procedures. This new edition features a more streamlined approach to cadaver dissection, focusing on more accurate, specific, and clear steps. The overall number of pages and figures has been reduced, reflecting a general trend toward fewer contact hours in the gross anatomy lab.

Grant's Dissector is an excellent resource for gross anatomy lab. It includes step-by-step instructions on the most efficient way to dissect your assigned cadaver. It saves time and helps you to spare important features for viewing. Though Grant's Dissector does include some basic illustrations, you'll still need a good atlas.

This was "Required" for my medical school class this year. It was insisted upon by our instructors, who decried my purchase of the 13th edition as insufficient for the task.
I paged through this book one time before our second lab, and discovered very quickly that most medical students aren't A+ dissectors, and that much of the direction within this book is too tedious and too impractical for a medical school laboratory session. Moreover, the book ends up getting oily and ruined too ... Read More

I am an M1 at UAMS, and Dr. Tank (the author of this text) is actually our Anatomy professor.

The images are intentionally simplistic with the understanding that there are other references (such as Rohen or Netter, which is what I use) that provide more detailed at-home references while studying. Tank actually recommends his grease dissector, with 2 other grease atlases per table in lab. Though ... Read More

Excellent dissection guide for a cadaveric anatomy course. Buy two, one as a "greaser" and one to keep at home to study from. Grant's has simple schematics to help you locate structures as you dissect, as well as references to Grant's Atlas, Netter's, Clemente ("regional atlas") and Rohen (photographic). I own them all and love them all.
One problem: the binding is that terrible metal-coil fall-apart-the-instant-you-open-the-book style. Try to find one that is book-bound.
