Average Customer Rating: 4.5 out of 5

1) Good book   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Good book. Great illustrations. If they have a newer version, get it, but it's a very large but sturdy book (the pages are oversized so it's a bit bulky). Good information. It's great if you're completely confused about something your teacher says. Usually you can reference it in the book and read all about it.

2) Great book!   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
This book is written in a very good detail with amazing pictures to make it easier for every learner. I am 100% happy with my purchase and would recommend this book to everyone who is really interested in studying Anatomy.

3) Review for Human Anatomy Book   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
I got it on time and received it as a new book.

4) Excellent, Worth the Weight   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
I am an EMT working on nursing pre-requisites, and I read this book, as well as Anatomy and Physiology for Emergency Care, and Marieb's book on anatomy. This is the best if you take the subject seriously. The large size allows for better graphics, which is important in this field. The text is uniformly excellent. I also like the fact that developmental anatomy (fetal development) is separate, so you can only go to that if you're interested. Lot's of cadaver pics, which are very important in showing that real bodes are not coveniently neon and coordinated colors. BTW, the other two books mentioned are also good. Marieb offers less material, and the A&P for Emergency Care is for paramedicine. If this area is new to you and you need excellent grades, find a local paramedic A&P class (40 hours), which is the best way to get a head start.

5) great reference book   [Rating: 4 out of 5]
This is a great reference book even for resident physicians. I highly recommend having it in your library of medical books.
