Want To Study Anatomy?

Many of the people reading this blog are involved in one way or another with Social Security's disability programs. Basic medical knowledge is essential to those of us working in this field, yet few of us have received any systematic medical education.

Here is a chance to study medicine at its most basic level -- for free. The University of California at Berkeley has posted videos online of Professor Marian Diamond's course lectures on anatomy and physiology. I have not had a chance to watch much of it yet, but what I have watched seems fascinating. Just judging by the size of her class -- for a topic that most people would shy away from -- I would say that she has to be an excellent lecturer.
