Average Customer Rating: 4.0 out of 5
1) Good for basic anatomy [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Got this book for a college level human anatomy course. Compared with other similar level anatomy books this one ranks high. Generally easy to read and interesting enough to keep one reading. Overall its an anatomy book and as such it should provide a good overview of human anatomy with just enough physiology to keep one interested in the material and provide a greater insight into what it is your learning, thereby helping to keep the material relevant and easy to recall. And as such this book meets expectations.2) human anatomy [Rating: 1 out of 5]
The book was lost in the mail. I, however, received a full refund on my purchase. I did receive the atlas that went with it.3) One of the best text books I've read yet... [Rating: 5 out of 5]
I have the new 5th edition. As a nursing student this text has been extremely easy to read and understand the concepts. It keeps you interested in the information with practical examples and lively dialogue and includes helpful memory tips. It also comes with a cd-rom and access to a web site that really help you study and review the material. My only complaint is the chemistry chapter (Chpt. 2) is a little long and dry but then that is probably due to the subject matter and not the author. I would highly recommend it to anyone!4) Anatomy [Rating: 4 out of 5]
Good book for the basics. Very helpful for those who wouldlike to learn more about basic anatomy.5) anatomy in a few words [Rating: 4 out of 5]
This book was verey good for many of the areas that I wanted to learn about. It did lack a little in the basics and in defining word roots. over all this was one of the better anatomy books that I have used.
