Acknowledgments
First, we would like to collectively thank those who have
reviewed drafts of various editions of this bookanatomists,
educators, and student members of the editorial review
board from around the world. Your input was invaluable.
We d also like to thank Richard Tibbitts and Paul Richardson for their skill in turning our visual ideas into a reality
that is not only a foundation for the acquisition of anatomical
knowledge, but also is beautiful.
Thanks must also go to Madelene Hyde, Jeremy Bowes,
Bill Schmitt, Rebecca Gruliow, John Casey, and all the team
at Elsevier for guiding us through the preparation of this
book.
We d also like to thank Professor Richard A. Buckingham
of the Abraham Lincoln School of Medicine, University of
Illinois for the provision of Fig. 8.114B . Finally, because we

whom we would like to make mention of individually. Weve
gratefully listed them here:

and Dr. Robert Cardell who profoundly infl uenced my career
as a scientist and an educator.

Anatomy changes! We see it through new glasses
X-rays, CT, MRI, and now AI ... what s next (I do not know,
but it s exciting). We need new eyes and new blood, and I
am delighted to have been helped by two inspirational colleagues, Dr. Monika Rowe and Dr. Rajat Choudhury with
the clinical. They are stars of the future.
Dr. Justin Lee and Dr. Gajan Rajeswaran are the greatest
colleagues who challenge me daily with MSK anatomy.
Many thanks for constant support from Mr. Andrew
Williams, Prof. James Calder, and Lucy Ball. They are all
awesome!
