It is available for personal use free of charge. iPhone, iPad, iPad mini and Mac OS X users will likely prefer to download a version available for iBooks, which, in addition to the main text, contains interactive elements and media such as quizzes, videos, diagrams, slideshows, and a glossary. Please read the section titles “Getting the most from iBooks” in the preface of the textbook. Other users can download a PDF version. Students at McMaster University with access to the anatomy lab can find the textbook on the iPads in the lab. Two versions for iBooks have been created: one with and one without video. The latter may be useful for students with space constraints on their iPads.
The download links are available on this website [the author’s website]. If you choose to download the iBooks version, instructions are available to help you install it, as it is not presently available on the iBooks store [It is available on itunes at the time of this post on 3-9-2015 – see link above].
