Anatomy: Pelvis

I'm a little annoyed because my textbook doesn't have a picture of the female pelvis, which is substantially different anatomically--it looks to be at about a 45% angle compared to the male pelvis.

But you can get images from lots of other places, including Wikipedia. Or even better, you might want to see if you can draw from one of those plastic skeletons that most every doctor and chiropractor has. My chiropractor has one hanging in his waiting room. Perhaps you could find one that you can get permission to draw from. That way you could vary the angles and really get to know the bones.

Mom, I know the bones. I personally scraped a pelvis nearly every day for a year. It just seems silly to have a deficient textbook, that's all.
