the book is very descriptive, yet reader friendly. I love that the publishers include the Evolve activities for learning. They are really helpful, as medical terminology can get a bit overwhelming and/or tedious.

Arrive a day late. Pages and cover were bent and bruised. The book is a great supplement for my vet tech classes and has very helpful and useful exercises. Already love this item despite the shipping mishaps.

This book was required for a vet tech program I was in (since graduated). Though the book was helpful, when the professor went over our answers with us it sometimes seemed to disagree with how the book taught it. Not sure which was actually correct, but it was helpful in learning what some specific veterinary terms meant.

This book is very easy reading and the crossword puzzles at the end of every chapter only enforces what you learned within that chapter. Its just a book one needs when starting out.

I really like this book, it helps with medical words and it also has chapters you read (which I didnt know I thought just medical words) so that is nice. This book is easy to read and makes it so you understand all of it.

This book is great for reviewing all the medical information before going for higher studies. It's also good for anyone just wanted a basic reference book. It's got a lot of useful terminology and pictures.

When I purchased this book, it said like new. This book is not like new. For a few dollars more I could have gotten a brand new book.

I have purchase 2 other books before this and they come nowhere near as good as this one. A must have.
