Anatomy Book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 14 years ago
What can I say? The teacher said "get the book", I got the book. It served me well. Great illustrations, very readable.
Ok but professor hates it
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This text was a required for a anatomy class as a prereq for the nursing program. The professor that teaches the class who has done so for 30 years really hates this textbook. He disagrees with most of what is in it, however he has to have it for the class. I myself find it a bit over the top on some of its explanations, I feel as a firstimer in the course it should be more to the basics not adding physio in it when we have to take that later. thanks
Useful & Thorough Anatomy Text
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
I've found this textbook a useful self-study guide. It is set up logically by body system with accessible pronunciations and definitions and with each chapter building on the next. The illustrations are detailed, informative and easy to follow. Each chapter also contains practical information relating to today's medical practices as it pertains to each body system. I was not as impressed with the companion "A Photographic Atlas of the Human Body" as I prefer illustrations over cadaver photos.
Very goog Human Anatomy
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
This is a nice Human Anatomy Book. The Structure of the book based on Systems in human body rather than zones.I believe this gives a better overall view of the human body. Much better than that author gives explanation of every name first its pronounciation and than its meaning in original language.Pictures are mostly schematic, very few photographs of cut bodies, some scanning electron pictures were very nice.Together with this book I recommend Organ and Tissue book with scanning electron pictures. I also liked the littel windows called "clinical Application; that brings you into real world. Overall I liked it very much, it is more than just parts of body. It is with information and applications.
