Principles of Human Anatomy (Fifth Edition) by Gerard J. Tortora (Science, Textbook, Anatomy, 1989, human anatomy, anatomy textbook, Tortora, A&P, science book)

This is the fifth edition of a standard college-level textbook on human anatomy. It provides a detailed, systematic study of the structures of the human body, from the microscopic to the macroscopic level.

Review:
A classic and comprehensive textbook for its time. Tortora's work is known for being well-organized and clearly written, making it a staple for anatomy students. However, as a science text, older editions are significantly outdated.

Author summary:
Gerard J. Tortora is a world-renowned author of anatomy and physiology textbooks. His flagship work, "Principles of Anatomy and Physiology," is one of the most successful and widely used college textbooks in the field, now in its 17th edition.

The collectible value is very low. Scientific and medical textbooks are updated frequently. This 1980s edition is academically obsolete, making it undesirable for students and of no interest to collectors. Its value is as a curiosity or for its illustrations.
