This is an excellent book. However the reason I gave it an eye catching 1 star with 'Save Your Money' tag is because I think it is best to get the older version or the 6th edition. The 6th ed. is the blue and white cover book with Apolo Ohno on it. It will be much cheaper than the 7th ed. I checked the 6th ed. out of my library while waiting on my 7th ed. to come in the mail. When my 7th ed. Serena Williams came in the mail, I decided to go thru both books at the same time and see for myself if there were any differences or variations. The only real differences that I found was of course the huge price difference, change of cover photo and just a tad bit more pages, but the most important thing is that both books are the exact same thing from beginning to end with the exact illustrations. I know that alot of the 7th ed.s come with the IP or Interactive Physiology cd. Truth is, alot of professors will give this IP to you for free if you ask. They have their own password that you can use, or you can purchase this IP cd set on ebay for a fraction of the cost. Save money!

I was hesitant about buying a book over the internet but the book I purchased was in great condition. I had purchased a "used" book in the midrange price and asked for priority shipping. The book didnt even look like it had ever been used and was in great condition. I paid 1/3 the price they were asking for from the college bookstore. The book arrived 5 days after I purchased it, including the weekend and a Holiday on Monday. Human Anatomy & Physiology with IP-10 CD-ROM (7th Edition)

I previously purchased the e-book of the 9th edition of this book for my first section of A&P and absolutely hated it. Only one slow loading page at a time could be viewed. On top of that, most of the info was presented in the lab manual, but MORE concise! I only purchased the e-book for one semester as even in that crap form it was freaking expensive.

I don't mind reading a good story leisurely on the computer, but I haven't been able to tolerate reading any textbooks, aside from chemistry, on them. So, I ordered the older edition for less than 1/3 of the original and cheaper than the one-semester e-book. And it's the.same.book. Same illustrations. Same everything, except for a cover change and a different color palet.

Save that cash, for when you're degreed and unemployed like me(getting even more degrees :-P)!

Great service, low price, and great quality. I recommend buying from this seller. The book is in more than excellent condition..I will not hesitate buying from this seller again. Keep up the good service.

Book received in very timely manner. Only thing is the description said with Cd-rom, but it didnt have one, which wasnt a big deal for me since I dont see myself using it.

I have no problem w/used books. But I wiped down as much as possible w/a clorox clean up. Just felt grimy and maybe had sticky dirty fingers when used last. otherwise, book was in good used condition.

My experience with Amazon was great.The product arrived in the condition as it was promised.
The seller was great in updating me over the status of the order and to top it all,the order arrived earlier than I anticipated.Thank you.

I would have given the book a full five stars if it wasn't so verbose. The book has wonderful diagrams and isn't bad at all. But it's hard to follow sometimes on top of having a professor that doesn't slow down at all.

However, I will admit that it covers all the bases and goes into detail when neccessary.

I would use it primarily as a reference guide (my prof would list pages to check out for different subjects) to follow along with your class notes. For A&P I didn't buy it because the info was so simple (bones/muscles) that I used the Brief Atlas more. Neurology and A&P II is more complicated, so I would have been lost without this textbook.

I received it in great condition, except for the adhesive sticky stuff on the front cover. It was a NEW copy. The Brief Atlas of the Human Body is an excellent addition, and I did enjoy part of the DVD that was kinda like "Hooked on Phonics" for A&P.

This is a fantastic A&P book for pre-med or pre-pharm studies. I also own Guyton & Hall's Textbook of Medical Physiology 11th ed, but I tend to gravitate toward this book because it is less cryptic than Guyton's. The illustrations are a great aid for folks like me who need visual aids and not just page upon page of text. There are anatomical illustrations and pictures of actual dissections, along with some helpful flow charts. Relevant pics & figures explain concepts that meld well with molecular biology and anatomy lab. I have yet to use the CD that came with the book. Overall, a great addition to my library. I highly recommend this book!

The book is very helpful and needed it for class, it came with a visual of where the bones and muscles were.
