While this book is fairly easy to read, I stopped reading it about halfway through my class because of the constant errors and typos. It is also inconsistent, which I think is mostly due to the fact that each chapter is written by a different person or group of people. Where one chapter says vasopressin, the next says ADH, and the next AVP. After coming across so many errors I stopped trusting the book. I wouldn't recommend it unless you know enough to spot the errors in the first place, and that kind of defeats the purpose.
Used this book to study for Chemistry ASCP exam. It was a great resource to review. Still use it for reference working in the lab. Also has on-line version that comes with the new edition, so it can be accessed at home and in lab.
I purchased to book to help with medical calculations for the assays that we run. The book does have some help with those calculations, but not many. However there are items that I have had to research a bit in my laboratory about why certain reactions occur, if this is a possilbe reaction and I did find data that was useful. I do believe that it will be helpful on other questions that I have to pose with my job, as Chemistry Manager in my clinical laboratory.
It's alright. Language is chewy, simple things are not very well explained, I actually had to search google for a better explanation. Really?
There was a hole in the back cover of the book, and I don't believe that was mentioned in the review, but I was desperate because I needed the book for my class that had already started. Not 100% pleased.
Required reading; this book was at a level higher than the students. Really miss having study questions at the end of chapter. Using it now.
Great book. Worthy to read and use for study. Not complicated when explaining difficult terms. Recommended for university reading and review.
Seller identified this book as like-new, and that was accurate. No high-lighting, no torn/bent pages. Very good condition. Some bent corners on the book cover, but that is to be expected. Even brand new books can have that, simply due to transport.
