Average Customer Rating: 4.5 out of 5

1) Good Physiology Text   [Rating: 4 out of 5]
I had a professor that basically used his notes for the tests. So I didn't use this book for all the section we covered. However, It does cover the points well and has had some good diagrams.

2) Excellent Diagrams and Illustrations   [Rating: 5 out of 5]
Need to learn stuff and be ready for exams in a hurry? This book is an excellent reference provided with clear explanations for understanding Human Physiology with illustrated features broken down into step by step instructions and/or diagrams and tables to help grasp information quickly when the instructions in class a little unclear. A MUST HAVE and A MUST READ!
