A great reference, but definitely a product of it's time

Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2019

This book has a lot of very detailed illustrations and descriptions of every bone and muscle you could think of that are great for use as reference. If you already know the basics of figure drawing, this will help you take things to another level by expanding your knowledge of the human form. That being said, this book is dated in some pretty unfortunate ways.
For example, most of this book seems to be focused on the male figure. There is some stuff towards the end of the book regarding the female form, and most of the muscles and bones are applicable to men and women, but the lack of variety is a little tiring. Another thing that's weird about this book is the short section towards the end that describes "racial differences" and uses some very out-dated language. It doesn't say anything outright offensive (but definitely incorrect) and actually seems to be pretty respectful, only focusing on the aesthetic differences between different people. That's not to say it isn't inaccurate and borderline offensive, but I'm trying to give the book the benefit of the doubt considering it was published in 1951.
Overall, I'd recommend this book, especially for the price. If you need something to keep on your desk as a quick way to reference different details of the human form, this book will do you well. If you're looking to learn more of the technical aspects of figuring drawing, I'd recommend "Figure Drawing For All It's Worth" by Andrew Loomis. Ideally you'd want to get both

For the asipiring artist on a budget that seeks the wisdom to improve. Get this book and learn the body in depth.

Reviewed in the United States on December 2, 2015

This is a must for artists that don't have the money to shell out for the Smith Micro Poser software and for those who want to study just about every facet of human anatomy. For 12 bucks this book can't be beat. You should already have some grasp of how to draw when picking up this book, but tips and images of drawing for given poses are featured to showcase the anatomy at work. This book is primarily geared towards those who love to draw and want to improve the accuracy and quality of their work. It is no secret to get better at something you have to do it a lot, and you have to study a lot. This book is a great starting tool for those who want to had down the path of producing quality drawings as opposed to disproportioned messes and clocking in at 265 pages, this is a beast of a manual to take in and learn. But if you can dedicate the time, you will see the results and become a more knowledgeable and efficient artist. If you are that aspiring artist that wants to get better, save yourself a few thousand dollars on art school and software. Grab a pencil and paper, get comfortable, crack open this book and get to work. You won't regret it. Time is on your side, just devote the efforts to it, read, and practice, practice, practice.

Great anatomy book!

Reviewed in the United States on September 27, 2010

Atlas of Human Anatomy For the Artist is an excellent book. I found it in a college library and after borrowing it for two weeks, I knew I had to buy my own copy. It is very thorough on the subject of human anatomy and goes into specifics regarding the differences in gender,age, and body mass. I read alot of anatomy books and have not come across too many willing to go beyond the ideal body type. I found it especially helpful that this book provides detailed drawings and photographs of the figure; some books only have rough sketches which are not very helpful. This book is not just for those who want to draw the figure; those who model the figure in 3D applications will also find it useful. Atlas of Human Anatomy For the Artist is not the only anatomy book an artist or animator will need, but it is an excellent addition to their personal library.

De afdruk van de foto's is zeer zwak waardoor veel details niet meer zichtbaar zijn.
Alles is ook afgedrukt op veel te licht papier. Enkel de inhoud is OK.

Excelente referencia

Reviewed in Mexico on May 22, 2019

Las descripciones son mas del lado práctico y de como se ven las formas, no tanto del lado anatómico. Tiene muchas ilustraciones que acompañan el texto para poder comprender mejor y poder ligarlo a formas más simples o más conocidas. El empastado es bastante resistente, lo abro por completo y no parece que le afecte demasiado. Si te interesa aprender anatomia para cualquier tipo de arte, compra este libro sin pensarlo.
