    Valerie Winslow in her book Classic Human Anatomy had to deal with the same issue. This is what she said in the preface:

    “One of my objectives in writing this book was to present complex material in an “art friendly” format while staying true to the established anatomical system created by the medical profession. I also felt the need to demystify and decode anatomical terms so that they feel less intimidating to those approaching artistic anatomy for the first time. Artists’ objectives for learning human anatomy are vastly different from those of medical professionals, yet the terminology derived largely from Greek and Latin, remains the same in both fields.

    If an anatomy course does essentially what she is doing in her book, it would I believe be the perfect Blender human anatomy course. 

    I’ve looked at many anatomy books in many libraries and in many bookstores. I’ve found Winslow’s book to be the most helpful anatomy book on the shelves for my artistic training.
