5.0 out of 5 stars Very good book, March 26, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Essentials of Anatomy and Physiology Fourth Edition (Paperback)

I used this book as a reference for my anatomy and physiology class in college and found it be right on target. I like the way the author explains these sometimes hard to understand topics. However, the book was not boring. If you want to really get an "A" buy the following books which are sold on amazon:
Anatomy and Physiology Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers with Explanations Vol 1(ISBN: 0971999619) and
Vol 2 (ISBN: 0971999627). These books focus on the type of questions that A and P teachers ask on college exams. My study group and I used this and it helped us all get excellent grades.

5.0 out of 5 stars Clear and readable text on a complex subject, June 2, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Essentials of Anatomy and Physiology (Paperback)

Amazingly for a book on such a subject, this easy to read and beautiful to look at text is a joy! It is very clearly laid out with content outlines at the beginning of each section and revision guides at the end. It may not be the most in-depth work on anatomy and physiology but it is certainly one of the most accessible. If you want a thorough introduction to the subject and you want to feel inspired to learn more, buy this book!
