Review :
An incredibly helpful resource to learn anatomy ! ‘Anatomy can be challenging to grasp due to its complexities but that’s where I found Quick Draw Anatomy to be really helpful because of its hand-drawn illustrations strike the perfect balance between simplicity and detail, which made visualising relations between structures much easier and really aided in grasping key anatomical concepts. On a more personal note, I found the drawing guides along with the illustrations to be incredibly beneficial in consolidating my what I had learnt because it tested my understanding regarding the positions of structures in relation to one another. Overall I believe this is a key resource for students learning anatomy as it provides clarity to a very complex subject through its simplified approach.' Amazon reviewer Great Anatomy Book!!! ‘I find anatomy at Medical School really tricky and this book has helped me out lots! It's great to visualise the anatomical structures and by drawing them out yourself you can fully visualise the placement and overall cohesive structure. It does include lots of detail so enables you as a student to work through the drawing easily. I find that drawing the structures on a whiteboard and then having to challenge myself to name them useful too! I recommend this book to anyone who really likes a bit of drawing and wants to learn in a different, more visual and relaxing way.' Amazon reviewer Such a productive way to study anatomy!! ‘At medical school, I have always struggled with learning my anatomy. Usually I use flashcards and it feels really draining but this book allowed me to productively study anatomy and actually enjoy it!! I really recommend!' Amazon reviewer We loved Quick Draw Anatomy for Medical Students ... a unique educational book designed to help medical students learn anatomy through drawing. It provides step-by-step instructions on drawing, understanding, and interpreting key anatomical structures. Her fantastic methodology for learning by illustration really impressed us with her first book! The author also emphasizes that you don’t need to be an artist to benefit from this book; all you need are some coloring pens and paper. This inclusivity opens the door for individuals from all backgrounds to engage with the material, whether they are seasoned artists or complete beginners. The methodical approach of breaking down complex anatomy into simple, repeatable steps is designed to aid in learning and retention. This systematic technique not only makes it easier to grasp intricate anatomical structures but also reinforces memory through repetition. Each concept builds on the previous one, allowing learners to gradually enhance their understanding and skills without feeling overwhelmed. Videos are always a beautiful addition to assist the learner, and Joanna has plenty to accompany the visuals in the book [on YouTube]. These videos provide additional support, offering demonstrations that clarify the steps described in the text and ensure that regardless of one’s learning style, there are diverse resources available to facilitate mastery. By visually engaging with the content, learners can better understand the nuances of anatomy and coloring, making the overall learning experience more dynamic and effective. What’s our CCN rating? 10/10! Go and buy this book, whether you are a medical student, allied professional, doctor, or Professor of Anatomy!
