Great introductory/review anatomy and physiology book. Purchased this for my husband for a pre-paramedic course. As a physician myself, I found the information to be well informed but easy to comprehend for new students of A&P.
I feel like an idiot for titling this review "Great pictures!" (what am I, in second grade?), but the fact is that the detailed, blown-up illustrations in this book make it a lot easier to grasp the minutia of what's going on in the human body, all the way down to a cellular level. I bought it for my anatomy & physiology class and decided to keep it as an additional resource for future A&P classes, of which there will be many.
I am an engineer and find this text extremely well written and organized for the learner. The summary outlines at the end of each chapter make it very convenient to review before a test or to just recheck your knowledge of the subject.
Great Copy, Yes it does have MINOR highlighting and wear. But I could not have asked for a better copy than this book. It really helps me get ahead in my Anatomy and Physiology class. Much Gratitude to ya!!!
Challenging class and I would have been a lost puppy if it wasn't for this textbook! I wouldn't have purchased it if it wasn't need and it was a definite MUST.
The book was in excellent condition, arrived quickly. I hardly used the book in class so as far as the text/content I found it well written easy to learn.
Very thorough. Very informative and easy to understand. Starts at the beginning and follows through to the end. like abc's or one-two-three!
Great book, well written and informative. Used for a college class. Very easy to read. Quick shipping and delivery. Great seller!!
