Summary: Very detailed but a little dry
Comment: This book is a classic and is comprehensive in scope. Each body part is fully covered with exacting illustrations and a full, but somewhat dry, description of the anatomy and function of that part. As a lay person, I sometimes have difficulty fully understanding medical and scientific terms in the text. Nonetheless, I know that what I want to look up will be fully illustrated and explained, probably in even more detail than I require.

Summary: As good as you have heard.
Comment: Gray's Anatomy is a "classic" book on Anatomy. Unusual for a classic, it is everything you have heard. The drawings are beautiful, accurate, and interesting. At the same time, this book was a standard text for Anatomy since 1901. As such, the drawing are only part of this book. The book's main effort is to explanation human anatomy. It does so wonderfully and clearly, with words. The drawings are only there to help with the text's explanations.
A quick warning. Since this book has been around since before 1901, there are many, many different versions. Make sure you check the printing date of the one you buy. The human body has not changed since this first editions, but our access to it has. As such, while some of the earlier books are beautiful to look at, the later editions are more valuable as a reference tool.

Summary: Gross Anatomy
Comment: This book is a classic, not on the shelf of physiologists, anatomists and doctors (they use newer texts) but on the shelf of artists! Yes, Gray's is the standard for figuring out what muscle is making that lump next to the nose, or how an arm is articulated to the shoulder. This is a good text for an art student, and pretty much a must for any student taking figure or life class.
