5.0 out of 5 stars Essential College Text, July 24, 2006

By	Jo Ann "High Frequency" (Brooklyn, NY USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Hole's Essentials of Human Anatomy and Physiology (Hardcover)

I studied this book for my college anatomy and physiology class. Of course, you need this book to study--without it I would have been lost. There is so much information in this book, makes anatomy and physiology a little easier to learn.

Other recommenations:

I also used Martini's Anatomy and Physiology Textbook as an additonal source. This book filled in the gaps, pictures/digarams were excellent.

Also, Leonardi's, "Anatomy and Phsiology Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers with Explanations volumes 1, 2 & 3. The question were comparable to the kind I saw on my college exams...
