Great book! "This is THE best Anatomy & Physiology book I've ever used. Clear and easy to understand. Some of the areas of physiology I've had problems with in the past were made clear this term with this book! I had to have it for class of course, but I'd also read it for fun. (I plan to keep the book instead of sell it)" - A. Francis
Good. "This was a great text for my Anatomy and Physiology class. It was easy to understand and I got a great grade." - Alisa M.
