I found this text to be overpriced for a generally uninformative book. If you have had to take A&P at any point in time in your life you will recall more information than this text can provide. I did not find it useful and wish that I would have simply trusted my old A&P texts. An A&P coloring book or anything would have been more helpful. The text is however nice in the fact that it is directed to mid-level practitioners. Don't waist your money.
