I am looking for recommendations for a good advanced anatomy book for self-education. I began working at a chiropractic office about six months ago, and though I feel competent in my work, as I am getting into some of the more advanced/complicated cases I am finding that my vocabulary is not what I need it to be. I have read multiple reviews online, but they all seem to be just as highly recommended and all claim to be easily navigable. If any of you have a great book or two that you have found to be helpful, please let me know!

Have you considered any edition "Anthony's Textbook of Anatomy & Physiology" by Gary Thibodeau? This is the book that was used in my Massage school way back when and BarnesandNoble.com has even the 2009 edition.
I really like Saladin's 5th Edition "Anatomy & Physiology: The unity and form of function." It can be ordered through McGraw/Hill. You might even be able to request an exam copy through their instructor page. It is the most comprehensive text I have seen.
Are you aware of Frank H. Netter, Atlas of Human Anatomy 4th edition? I use the book in my RI classes. Most Orthopedic Doctors use the book and Interns. Hope this helps and stay in touch I would like to know if you are aware of the book.
