This is probably a good desk reference for a physician, but it is a poor instructional aide, and is full of errors and omissions of important information.This is a 2000 page book, and goes into excruciating detail to the point where the grand scheme is lost. Moreover, the excruciating detail is not well explained, or starts out well explained and abruptly digresses before the explanation's conclusion. The cardiac action potential is one such example.As an instructional aide, it is very poor. It is very difficult to learn from this book, and some explanations are wrong. As an example, an this book describes an inverse agonist as a type of regulatory ligand that stabilizes a receptor in its inactive form, which is incorrect. It should be described as a type of regulatory ligand that reduces activity below a receptor's basal rate.There are numerous errors in page layout that affect the way the outline of the material is perceived. As an example, in the general principles section where the physiological receptors are presented, there is a nice table showing the various types of receptors. The body of the text does not unfold as expected. I will use an outline format as an analogy. A proper presentation would unfold as such:I. Receptors A. GPCR B. ion-gated C. nuclear receptor D. etc 1. etc a. etcWhat we get instead is: A. receptors 1. GPCR B. ion-gatedI. nuclear receptor C. etc 1. etc. a. etc.The headings are completely screwed up. Nuclear receptor looks like a new section in the chapter.Also, the book goes back and forth between regular print and microscopic print in the body of the text.
