Anatomy
The InnerBody website is hard to beat for interactive 3D visualisations of all the body systems.
The excellent Acland’s Video Atlas of Human Anatomy has video of fresh dissections of the whole body which are very clearly described and seen.
Human Skull is a video of the bony structure of the the head.
Embryology
The Australian University of New South Wales Embryology and Research website has a lot of excellent information including an illustrated movie of the foetal development cycle.
Indiana University Bloomington has a set of great Human Embryology Animations.
And of course The Visible Embryo.
Craniosacral Therapy Book List
To my knowledge there is currently no really accessible book for the general public, but in my opinion, Wisdom in the Body: The Craniosacral Approach to Essential Health by Michael Kern gets the closest for clarity.
For a fuller list of cranial books have a look at Craniosacral Therapy Association – Further Reading and the Upledger Institute – Bookshop.
