Student Anatomy Books

Lotus Publishing is renowned for its production of high quality anatomy, bodywork and physiotherapy text books, publications and literature for students and teachers alike. The Concise Book of Muscles, the first book ever published by Lotus Publishing in 2003, went on to become a best-seller, and is still a student staple for numerous bodywork, health, fitness and physiotherapy courses across the UK.

Whether you are a student keen to read up on your chosen topic, or a lecturer/teacher looking for appropriate reading lists, literature and text books for your students, anatomy book publisher Lotus Publishing’s comprehensive catalogue of anatomy text books and publications offers something for everyone. Some publications focus solely on anatomy, such as The Concise Book of Muscles, which opens with an introduction to the moving body (covering such topics as anatomical directions, planes of the body and skeletal systems) and then breaks down to cover specific parts of the body (muscles of the face, head and neck, muscles of the trunk, muscles of the shoulder and upper arm, muscles of the forearm and hand, muscles of the hips and thigh and muscles of the leg and foot).

Other publications in the range, however, are directly linked to a specific discipline, such as The Concise Book of Trigger Points, which begins with some introductory chapters on skeletal muscle, muscle mechanics and fascia, trigger points and trigger point formation, and therapeutic technique protocols, and then focuses on the various muscle groups – such as muscles of the face, head and neck, muscles of the trunk and spine, etc. Other books that focus solely on specific disciplines in the anatomy book range include: Fascial Release Structural Balance, The Anatomy of Stretching, The Anatomy of Exercise and Movement, and The Concise Book of Acupoints.

In total there are fifteen different anatomy books in the Lotus Publishing range, each focusing on a different aspect of either, health, fitness or bodywork, making Lotus Publishing one of the leading health and fitness, and bodywork anatomy book publishers in the UK. The distinct style of Lotus Publishing’s anatomy books, with their concise layout, clear photographs/illustrations and easy to reference chapters make Lotus Publishing anatomy books hugely accessible to students, lecturers and teachers alike, making them a popular choice, something that has remained unchanged over the last eight years.

The illustrations of the anatomy book range are often cited as the key factor in the books being such a popular choice, providing the edge over other publishers’ books and making the literature particularly easy to understand, reference, and learn from. Text books such as The Concise Book of Trigger Points, The Concise Book of Muscles and The Anatomy of Stretching are renowned for having a dedicated page for clear, concise illustrations outlining either a specific stretch, specific trigger point or muscle (depending on the book). It is these accompanying images that helped make The Concise Book of Muscles a best-seller, and are the unique selling points which make Lotus Publishing books so popular with students, lecturers and teachers alike.
