 Nothing Special October 13, 2009

Nothing special about this book. Just your typical run of the mill anatomy textbook. Buy something else or a physiology textbook if it is cheaper.

it's req. reading. it seems like a good book as far as texts go, but the teacher still shows us slides from other sources and makes comments that lead me to be that the book isn't as comprehensive as it could be.
Excellent drawings of body structures May 30, 2009

Book is very good at keeping "fluff" material to a minimum. The drawings are wonderful (better than the actual anatomy dummies). It is hard material so I would get text early and pre-read as much as you can before class starts to leave more time for studying later.
 Excellent textbook! April 2, 2009

I recently finished an introductory course in anatomy/physiology, and this was the textbook we used. It is an excellent way to introduce yourself to the various systems that compose our bodies. I would recommend this for anyone who wants a basic understanding of the body without having to go to medical school.

Book is in great condition. I thought it would be shipped to my house a little sooner though.
