Anatomy for Beginners

[Tridimity]

Just came across this awesome anatomy series by anatomist Dr. Gunther von Hagens and pathologist Prof. John Lee, available via Channel 4 On Demand and on YouTube:

Lesson 1. Movement

Lesson 2. Circulation

Lesson 3. Digestion

Lesson 4. Reproduction

 

Note: do not watch if squeamish or if you have moral concerns regarding human dissection.

 

Hopefully nobody else has previously posted links to the same videos; I tried searching for 'Hagens' and 'Anatomy for Beginners' within the Forum site and this gave negatives but then I was temporarily prevented from performing further searches by the time-out mechanism that is in place at this site. I hope also that this does not violate your video-post policy - I am willing to discuss should other members so wish.

Neither link listed would play in my region (Pacific Northwest of the United States), but I found the Series re-uploaded on a channel of YouTube called "Manuel Villasana". After seeing just the intro I can see why it's not available through "official" channels in America.

Going back to watching now.

Great ones, Youtube is my best resource for quick reviews in specifics of anatomy.

 

But I did come across a set of anatomy animations that I've got and really love. I like it because everything is in one place and I can easily search for what I want to look for. Here's a link for it : http://tinyurl.com/animatedanatomy

 

It is paid, but it doesn't cost more than any one textbook I use at my college classes. It has quizzes too, beats a textbook for sure! Very well worth it for me, just thought I'd share.
