    I always wanted to learn how to draw the human figure correctly, so I enrolled in art school. This book is very helpful in depicting the figure accurately. My only wish was that it gave me more poses, from both views, and different angles, etc.

    I would recommend this book to others, in fact, one of my fellow students in a higher level painting class, saw my book and subsequently bought my second copy of it. (I misplaced mine right after my purchase and reordered it, found my original copy later) My friend was having trouble depicting the human skull, the book helped her make the necessary corrections. This book has proved very help to me when I sketch helping me to make my figures more realistic.

    Not Quite Complete

    The skeletel and muscular diagrams in this book are great, and the captions are exceptionally thorough, but only one body type is discussed. I found it to be a great starter book for the artist concerned about anatomical correctness, but it does not deal with smaller frames such as children or petite women. Muscles and bones make up the majority of the book, but I found the brief inclusions of facial expressions and features helpful. My biggest complaint is that this book covers Caucasian features only.

    Not For Beginners!

    I believe that this is a good resource for more advanced artists. It is not for someone--like me--who is just beginning and is interested in learning how to draw the human body simply. The illustrations in this book are great and detailed, but maybe Sheppard's other title about Drawing the Living Figure would have been more helpful for me. In any case, I would only recommend this book if you are more advanced.
