I suspect that most people buy this with the idea of actually colouring it in, as did I. However being a busy vet student I never really got around to it and neither did my friends who also bought the book. That's not to say that it hasn't been useful and I frequently refer to this book for a quality clear black and white diagram. It has also been useful for locomotor anatomy, where individual muscles can be shaded different colours to help you learn the basic layout before referring to other textbooks and photos where everything appears as a mass of confusing pink! It covers all the main aspects of the anatomy of the major veterinary species.
I don't have any regrets buying the book. It definitely represents good value for money and is a useful set of clear diagrams that I have found myself referring to time-and-time again.

EXCELLENT BOOK!!!!
Reviewed in the United States on 12 September 2010Verified Purchase
This book far exceeded my expectations! With over 300 illustrations ranging from equine, feline, canine,etc. it covers a huge variety of systems and muscle groups! Was very, very impressed! My high school (within LAUSD) is creating a zoology class in the next year, and I have recommended this book to them which will be the main source for all the worksheet and labeling assignments!! Very detailed book and the pictures are extremely sharp and accurate! Very, very good product for the price. I can't recommend it enough. Each animal type is categorized by body positions and anatomical views, rendering a complete view of the animal over several different sections in the book.
A typical layout of any page will include:
1) the anatomical view of the animal
2) 22+ different labels of the sanctioned (according to #chapter) parts to color!
3) Description of the system at the top of the page (what you are looking at)
4) Clean, non-waxed or glossy paper, to color on
...and more!!!!
But to any potential buyers, whether you are a vet student, zoologist, animal system aficionado, or simply have a minor interest in animal sciences and anatomy (like me), then I highly recommend this book for you! I would not recommend buying a textbook that runs from $50-$98, until you buy this book. For only a fraction of the cost of veterinary textbooks, it serves as a great introduction to veterinary medicine and anatomy!
*** I would suggest buying a 2" binder, photocopying (at work or a friend's office, the pages of interest to you) and then storing it in the binder and keeping the book in your library for safe-keeping. That way you can have a more professional reference tool and sell the book, "unmarked" and in "like new condition" in the future! Thanks for reading the review!

Amazing book and study tool
Reviewed in the United States on 25 November 2011Verified Purchase
I bought this book about a month ago, and ever since then, I've been coloring in it everyday. I'm a Veterinary Technology student and one of my hardest classes right now is Animal Anatomy. This book covers so much that it has really helped me with my studies. It covers not just canine and feline, but bovine and equine as well. The equine has really helped this far in my semester because that's what my whole semester is based on. It helps me study for tests and it's proven to really help when trying to recall certain parts. I can close my eyes during a test and picture what I colored and the color of that specific part. I would recommend this book to any veterinary technology student, veterinary medicine student, or anyone that just wanted to learn about the anatomy of these animals.
