This review is from: Laboratory Exercises in Anatomy and Physiology with Cat Dissection (6th Edition) (Paperback)

This is a great lab manuel for anatomy and physiology but it should make it more clear that its not just the cat dissection. I had already bought a lab manuel and was looking to purchase a cat dissection manuel and the description of this book doesnt make it clear that its not only the cat dissection but the entire lab manuel as well. But if you are looking for a lab manuel that also contains the cat dissection then this is great.

Very good book, a lot of information for a lab book. It helps not to carry around the text all the time but it is very detailed.
