Essentials of Human Anatomy & Physiology: 9780321513427: Medicine & Health Science Books @ desertcart.com Review: Good for Basic Course - This is an excellent source for a basic understanding of Anatomy and Physiology. Just note that any such class requires a lot of memorization. There are a lot of terms, and names for things to remember. This book makes it more interesting my adding stories and relating the information to real life or job situations. It helps to put things into perspective. The images are not always clear, but, when used with the workbook designed for the course, everything comes clear. I was not particularly pleased with the CD's that came with the book, but they do contain all the images from the book as an aid to studying. Review: fast and efficient - The book came reasonably quickly. I would mention that it didn't come with the CD that usually accompanies the book when you purchase it new... but I got it used, for a great price, so I wasn't really expecting the CD. There was only minimal underlining/highlighting/marginal notes, not at all a problem. The book is well written, has easy to read diagrams, and explains Human anatomy in a nice overview that isn't too indepth nor does it gloss over everything. Overall, I was very happy with the service from the seller, and from the book itself.

Good basic human anatomy book
Good book easy to read and understand. I didn't really like how it was organized because I felt it skipped around. That could just be they way my teacher organized the class though. Learned a lot and good information.

Very Good!
I am a single mom and was searching online for a book for my anatomy class, and found it for much much less than it cost new at the school I attend. It came very quickly, it was used, so there were markings on it, and highlighting. But, as far as used books go, it is in good enough condition for me to use. The thing that I was happiest about was the price and the quick shipping.

Makes a difficult subject a bit more clear....
I am enjoying learning about human anatomy & physiology in this textbook. I am not a science geek or anything close (sure wish I would have paid more attention in my high school biology class!) but this textbook is full of diagrams, photographs and lots of visual aids to help me learn, what is for me, a very difficult subject. So glad that this is the book used by WGU Washington for the Human Anatomy course.

Essentials of Human Anatomy and Physiology
This book was okay and has a lot of good information, however after seeing the 10th edition I would pick that one of the two.

Needed for an anatomy class in January.
Bought this for an ortho- bionomy class. Was a very readable text. Can better answer once I start the class. Pictures are very good.

This book is essential for my studies into nursing, so I was grateful that a fellow nursing student was willing to sell it on to help others.
