Better than Hogarth's 'Dynamic Anatomy'

An excellent small, less expensive book that even so provides tremendous information. At the very back is a small section on animal anatomy, too, so the falcon flaps correctly. Sets photos or artwork against the skeletal or flayed figures to show how the diagrams relate to the real thing. Good attention to some small details not always covered, like how to make the teeth in a smile look good, or the different proportions of the child to the adult figure. Also shows the *properly* articulated wooden model, not the horror usually sold, which will screw up your figure drawing because the shoulders are articulated inaccurately.
