Caution: there is not a paperback version of this textbook available!

The Amazon page for the Anatomy and Physiology text shows a link to a paperback version available for about $35 dollars, but it is not a paperback version of the textbook! Instead you'll receive the study guide - this is an error with Amazon's page for this book.

The study guide does appear to be a good one, with practice tests and review points to help prepare for exams. I'll probably keep it now that I have it, but I still had to fork out $100+ for the actual textbook!

This text reads rather like an expanded lecture. Language is precise where it needs to be: I don't see "arm" used where "upper extremity" is intended.

I believe the May 2 reviewer may be dealing with a much older edition or otherwise confused. The connection of HPV to cervical cancer is clearly indicated in this edition, and was present in the second edition as well. In the second edition herpesviruses were also mentioned as "having been implicated as a cause of cervical cancer", and that phrase has been dropped from the third edition. I think the phrasing was probably reasonable at the time the second edition was in preparation.

I would never go so far as to say any text is error-free. However, when I think I've found mistakes in here it's more likely to turn out that the folks at Terminologica Anatomica have changed something underneath me - like moving the macula densa from the distal convoluted tubule to the ascending limb of the loop of Henle.

This is my first A & P class and this book has made it easy to understand and follow the professor. I would highly recommend this book.

This textbook came to me earlier than expected and WOW it was in perfect condition, much better than the local campus bookstore and waaay cheaper!

Highly recommend shopping here for your college textbooks. These are identical to the ones sold in the college bookstores, only SO MUCH CHEAPER. I saved over $300 from my college bookstore and ended up with more new books.

My book arrived VERY quickly! & It was exactly what I ordered! No complaints, whatsoever! Thanks!!!

the product was in a new wrapper and it was exactly as i saw on the picture it showed. but it took about a week and a half to get it which i didn't really like. i thought it was supposed to be for 3 to 5 days.

I only used this book for our lab class but the information seemed really easy to understand and the pictures are great very descriptive and easy to understand. I always used the pictures to study for tests.

The Anatomy & Physiology book ordered was received very quickly and in good condition. I was very pleased to have the book so timely so that I could begin studying right away. I have confidence in this seller for future purchases.

This is a fantastic book for anyone trying to learn the anatomy and physiology of the human body. The CD that comes with it contains a variety of learning tools and the book gives access to a website that enhances learning. Overall great selection!
