Just a few years ago, the National Library of Medicine’s “Visible Human”
project—CT scans of a complete cadaver, available on the Internet was big
news. But the researchers behind the project never realised that this made the
archive public domain, and that several entrepreneurs would download it all, and
sell it on CD-ROM. In fact, 3-D Body Adventure, includes far more anatomy
resources than just the Visible Human, designed for PCs and Macs, and aimed at
people “7 years old and up.” It’s available from Knowledge Adventure,
Glendale, CA. 818-246-4400 at $22 (ISBN 1 56997 212 5).
