This is not a good text. There is too little information and explanation for the concepts. In addition, the back of the book claims that the questions are in USMLE format and that explanations are provided, but that is simply a lie. There are no explanations. Compared to physiology texts such as those by Costanzo or Lilly, this book is very weak.
