skeletal muscles. It is designed for Use by students of anatomy, physical education and health- related fields. It also serves as a compact reference for the practicing professional. ‘The first chapter presents labeled line drawings of the skeleton, which include all structures that are used in de- scribing origins and insertions in the later chapters. A mas- ter numbering system is used so that each structure is la- beled with the same number in all drawings. ‘The second chapter describes the various movements of the body, In chapters 3 through 9 the origin, insertion, action and, innervation of the skeletal muscles are described and each muscle is presented on a separate page with a line draw- ing, ‘The spinal cord levels of the nerve fibers that innervate ‘each muscle are included in parentheses after the name of each nerve. Labeled drawings of major muscle groups are pre- sented throughout chapters 3 to 9. Notes and relationships ‘among muscles have been included on many pages. ‘The drawings include the following important features: 4. Bones and cartilage containing muscle attachment sites are shaded, 2. Adjacent structures are shown, 3. Muscie fibers are drawn by direction. 4. Muscle fibers are shown on the undersurface of bone and cartilage as dashed lines. 8. Tendons and aponeuroses are shown. . Labeled muscle groups are included. These features aid in visual orientation and under- standing of the action of the muscles. We have noticed that many students find it useful to color the illustrations. Notes have been included on many pages to show how muscles are used. Relationships among many of the mus- cles have also been indicated where appropriate. Many ‘more of these have been included in the third edition Since our primary goal is to describe the muscles mov- ing the skeleton, we have not described the muscles of the perineum, eye, tympanic cavity, tongue, larynx, pharynx, or Palate. We extend our appreciation to Mr. George Boykin, who was for many years the jolly proprietor of the gross anatomy laboratories at the Health Sciences Center of the Stale University of New York at Stony Brook, for his help and encouragement. We also thank Mr. Vincent Verdisco and Ms. Diane Chandler for their technical advice with the artwork and Ms. Katherine Juner for her secretarial services, Robert J. Stone Judith A.
