Richmond,

What your professor of anatomy could put to good use - apart from 
getting an introduction to Revolution that is customized to his needs - 
are probably tools like "Multimedia Maker" from Mediachance Software

<http://www.mediachance.com>     and

<http://mmb.mediachance.com/index.html>

or to a lesser degree "Neobook" from

<http://www.neosoftware.com>.

Unfortunately both programs are available only for Windows.

Multimedia Maker, for that matter, offers automated programming as a 
possibility, i.e. you could assign actions to buttons simply by choosing 
from offered options. On the other hand, it features a quite 
sophisticated script language and embedded browser and flash objects. 
Image handling is in  some aspects more versatile and effective than 
with Revolution, which is understandable, as Mediachance offers a number 
of extra graphic, photo ,and video tools of impressive quality (see 
"RealDraw PRO" and "Dynamic HDR" which I use frequently).

"Neobook" and "Multimedia Maker" do not belong to the xtalk category, 
but they rely on the card/stack paradigm like HC, Supercard, Revolution 
etc.etc.
