Makes a tough topic even more difficult to comprehend June 27, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I am not a fan of this book. If you're buying it for fun, choose another one. If your professor requires it, buy something else to complement your studying (I liked Anatomy and Physiology The Easy Way) or pray you have an awesome professor. This text book is not concise at all, incorporates pointless analogies, and does not describe things in order. I had to read through some sections multiple times in order to understand what was being explained. The only redeeming factors were the IP-9 System Suite, which did a good job of explaining things and had helpful quizzes, and some good illustrations in the book. The atlas is also helpful for memorizing the skeletal system... But overall, if you can avoid using this textbook, then do so!
Fundamentals of Anatomy and Physiology March 15, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
The textbook is OK and the applications and atlas are nice to have to complement the main book, but I did not receive an access code from Amazon with my product so was not able to access the extra study materials or practice tests that are often referred to in the text. Numerous e mails to the publisher requesting the necessary access code(for my NEW textbook) were not effective; they blamed Amazon for the slight in materials and never did send me an access code.I feel the publisher/author misrepresent the product by not granting access to materials that are advertised in the text.
Awesome & Informative February 9, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This text is very informative. The layout is wonderful, spacing the text out with pictures so you dont get bored readinf. I like the diagrams and the applications manual. The AM has examples of what you are reading and clinical settings for diagnosing.
DON'T DO IT TO YOURSELF IF YOU DON'T HAVE TO... March 1, 2006 20 out of 33 found this review helpful
This is the most horribly written book with wordy descriptions and it would take about 10 pages to make one simple point. I suffered through the 6th edition for Anatomy 1 and 2. At the end of Anatomy 2, I brought that demon outside, poured perfume over it, and had a bonfire. I watched it burn and was happy to see it go. Any updated edition would only be more suffering. If the drop screen allowed me to give negative 10, I would have done so, gladly.
