Where to find more help
It’s a good book
Elisa Han –
Love this book
Got this today and I am already in love with it. Why can’t school textbooks be this simple and concise?The material is printed on good quality paper. Very well worth the money. I wish they made one on microbiology too since I can’t seem to find anything that can make things simple for someone like me to understand.
Annie –
Perfect
Great purchase

Improving my students’ test grades.
I proctor tests for college students. A group of students were having issues passing the science portion of a national test and reported that their weakness is A&P. Students can borrow the book from me to study for the test. They report the book is very helpful for preparing for the test.

All you need to know and more
Great book about to start the chapters soon.
Amazon Customer –
Excellent!
I am purchasing several copies of this book for my friends who have recently arrived from Afghanistan and want to pursue a career in nursing. I also purchased one for myself even though I’ve been a nurse for 30 years because it is so excellent.

Very fundamental information
If you are a brand new student it would probably provide some very good information, But it does not do anything extra. For instance, it does not tell or show you the blood flow through the body and what it accomplishes when either the venous or arterial circulation, passes through each body organ. I would have expected to find that in the circulatory system. But maybe I overlooked it. I don’t believe I did though. Enquiring minds want to know, you know?
OfficeDay –
I like the book because it is written in easy to read way and includes examples.

Helpful

I do a lot of research in Medicine and I found this book to be very useful for that. they have facts on physiology that lead to generating new knowledge. However if you expect to learn anatomy, this is not the book for you. try the coloring books for that, Biology, Antinomy, and Neurology. the coloring books are more tyime intensive, but at least you learn the terminology.
