• Sommario/riassunto: This book, authored by Emeline Verna, delves into the asymptomatic osseous variations of the postcranial human skeleton. It provides a comprehensive examination of anatomical variations in bones beyond the skull, including the upper limb, thorax, and vertebral column. The text aims to enhance understanding of these natural variations, often unnoticed in clinical settings, and their implications for human anatomy and posture. It is intended for professionals and students in anatomy, anthropology, and related fields, offering detailed comparative analysis with animal anatomy to contextualize human skeletal adaptations.
