I like the way the book feels and handles, and have used quite a few pages to really get to grips with bone, muscle and movement. I have some difficulty with the overall anatomy of the body, but this book is so detailed that I can just open it whenever I'm stuck in a particular body part.

Nearly a century before Mondrian made geometrical red, yellow, and blue lines famous, 19th-century mathematician Oliver Byrne employed the color scheme for his 1847 edition of Euclid's mathematical and geometric treatise Elements. In this book, Lauricella focuses exclusively on the hands and feet--arguably the most popular and, to some, the most difficult shapes of the body to draw successfully.

This book is authored by Michel Lauricella, an art instructor with more than 2 decades of teaching morphology.

Polaroid instant photography revolutionized the taking and making of pictures, and the story of its beginnings is a simple one. An “illuminating” (Daily Mail, London) exploration of the second generation of the iconic Bloomsbury Group who inspired their elders to new heights of creativity and passion while also pushing the boundaries of sexual freedom and gender norms in 1920s England.And they broke it apart by sections of the body, so it's even easier to just pick it up and look for the one specific anatomy you need.

Please feel free to correct me if I am wrong but I have just started reading this book in English and have found two misleading facts. It doesn't teach you how to add muscle, but you understand where fat accumulates in the body and how curvatures and certain parts should look. The must-have guide for all artists who draw the human figure This small, portable book presents a unique perspective on the head, face, and neck for artists to study and implement in their drawing work. The difference is in this book there's more breakdown into the different parts of the body, muscles, bone structure and how the different parts work together.In more than 1,000 illustrations, the human body is shown from a new perspective—from bone structure to musculature, from anatomical detail to the body in motion. The typical approach to teaching anatomy and the sketching of the human form most often focuses on the skeleton and musculature. Still, despite the size and the fact that another Morpho book I received, not even in a language I understand, holds a precious, respectful place on a shelf in my library.

This isn’t a how-to-draw book, but it explains anatomical reasoning like how an ear is leveled to a jawbone or how long an arm should be from the kneecap.

This book is good for learning the internal structures and how they bend and fold but it's not an art instruction book. In more than 1000 illustrations, the human body is shown from a new perspective—from bone structure to musculature, from anatomical detail to the body in motion.
