 • I Wish All Books Were Wrote Like This
05 December, 2007

I think all books should be written were everyone can understand them not just nerds. the book puts hard to understand consepts into terms that anyone can understand. I used these books, this along with the workbook to get a rough grasp on anatomy and physiology before I started the classes. I think they are tremendously helpfull an would recomend to anyone that needs that extra boost.

 • Save Your Money! Try Something Else
12 October, 2008

Borrowed this book from a friend. Found it pretty much worthless. Save your money. You can learn more from an on-line tutorial.

 • Good Read But Hit And Miss If You Are Taking Anatomy & Physiology
30 July, 2008

A good book to read if you are not using it to supplement your Anatomy & Physiology Reference book. It missed so much important information that will be relevant to your class or specially your exam. If you are trying to get an A in your Anatomy & Physiology to get into Nursing, Not the right supplement for your studying. You are better off to buy Cliff Notes or just read your book from school - do not waste your money.
