Diverse worldwide market; both practitioners and trainees across medical and health professions; institutions. For the series: medical schools with a systems-based curriculum (students, instructors, staff, library); clinical practitioners at all levels (especially nonspecialists and specialists interested in areas outside of their specialty); Netter fans and gift-buyers for Netter fans. For the book/volume: offices/depts/individuals in orthopaedics, physical therapy, rheumatology, and other musculoskeletal specialties. Much of the content will be superficial for their daily practice purposes, but it will be appreciated for its artistic depictions of the field and something to be used with patients, staff, and students/trainees
