This review is from: Human Anatomy (Hardcover)

I used this book for an introductory course in Anatomy at BYU. The text was good and very useful. However, I used it mostly to study for my lab and it was very helpful in that it had really good pictures and labels for help in lab. I wouldn't ever want to sell this one back, you can refer to it for your entire life.

This review is from: Human Anatomy (Hardcover)

I am a 17-year-old pianist and high school student residing in New Jersey. I am studying human anatomy and physiology to improve my piano technique. I am not going to be a professional anatomist later in my life. I am going to be a professional pianist.
I bought this textbook to study the basic detail of the human body. Although this is a college level textbook, I recommend this book for everyone who wishes to study basic human anatomy. Weather you are a professional medical student or not, you can learn a lot of detail things through this book. Whether you are an athlete, a musician, or just a person who wishes to know about the human body, this book will help you greatly. I guarantee that you will enjoy reading this book.
The author of the book regards readers as people who have no knowledge at all about the human body. So why don't you go ahead and start reading? How exciting!
