Re: Drug-Related and Toxin-Related Deaths
Just a heads up the Atlas itself is freely available for download via torrent. It is superb, if you are looking for a clinical take on common causes of death - the actual writing is quite scant, most of the book is high-quality pictures split into headings such as blunt force, asphyxiation, suicide, firearms trauma etc etc. Others may disapprove of the direct download, but my own feeling is I have spent many, many thousands on textbooks in my time (many of which are changed nominally from year to year so you can't use the previous year's textbook), and am not studying pathology so would never buy the text outright. Anyway, the above is an excellent example of the Atlas as a whole. If medical specimens interest you, another excellent text is the Color Atlas of Anatomy, which is a gold standard anatomy atlas using only cadaver specimens rather that illustrations such as with Gray's et al. It is a common first-year source for aspiring surgeons. It is also freely downloadable. |
