The Anatomical Society has developed a series of learning outcomes in consultation with nursing educators delivering anatomical content to undergraduate (preregistration) nursing students. A Delphi panel methodology was adopted to select experts within the field that would recommend core anatomical content in undergraduate nursing programmes throughout the UK. Using the Anatomical Society's Core Gross Anatomy Syllabus for Medical Students as a foundation, a modified Delphi technique was used to develop discipline‐specific outcomes to nursing graduates. The Delphi panel consisted of 48 individuals (n = 48) with a minimum of 3 years' experience teaching anatomy to nursing students, representing a broad spectrum of UK Higher Education Institutions. The output from this study was 64 nursing specific learning outcomes in anatomy that are applicable to all undergraduate (preregistration) programmes in the UK. The new core anatomy syllabus for Undergraduate Nursing offers a basic anatomical framework upon which nurse educators, clinical mentors and nursing students can underpin their clinical practice and knowledge. The learning outcomes presented may be used to develop anatomy teaching within an integrated nursing curriculum.

The twelfth edition of Principles of Anatomy and Physiology by Tortora and Dickinson has maintained the balance between structure and function of the human body characteristic of previous editions. It emphasizes the correlation between normal physiology and pathophysiology, normal anatomy and pathology, and homeostasis and homeostatic imbalances. This international student edition is published in an easily portable two-volume set -a welcome change, since students have commented on the weight of earlier editions. Volume one focuses on organization, support and movement, and control systems while volume two embraces maintenance and continuity of the body. In response to feedback from teachers and students, the illustrations within the text are of an even better standard than previous editions, with the re-development of many of the images depicting the topics that are toughest for students to grasp. Student feedback has also been used extensively in further improving the text. The twelfth edition continues to offer a balanced presentation of content under the umbrella of one unifying theme, homeostasis. Clinically relevant information on the normal state is summarised in clinical connection text boxes, and clinically relevant disorders are grouped in text boxes under the remit of homeostatic imbalances.Extensive e-learning resources for this text are accessible through the WileyPlus environment by using a registration code that is supplied with the book. This website contains a full e-text of the book linked to questions, animations and interactions. I was impressed by the online content, especially the podcasts, interactive anatomy activity sheets and practice quizzes.As a lecturer who teaches anatomy alongside physiology in many modules, I appreciate the integrated approach to structure and function that is presented in this book. Currently most degree programmes comprising anatomy and physiology are taught in an integrated manner in tandem with biochemistry, thus a text that presents material in an integrated fashion is to be welcomed by both students and teachers using current curricula. To meet student needs each chapter has been written in a clear, precise manner, with excellent illustrations and online support. However the anatomy atlas that accompanies the text is very limited in its content as it lacks cadaveric images of internal regional anatomy. This atlas is insufficient to meet the needs of any student; medical, nursing or otherwise, therefore I would recommend the use of an additional anatomy atlas with the textbook.Would I recommend this text? The main drawback of an integrated textbook is that it tends not to be as in-depth as a stand-alone text focused on a single subject. I would recommend this book as a starter textbook for medical students in the early years of their course, but it should be used in conjunction with more clinically-focused standalone texts in anatomy and physiology. It is, however, ideal as a core text for students of nursing and other allied health professions for whom anatom...
