Editorial Review: The essential handbook for healthcare workers. Anatomy and physiology students require more than a passing grade, and have to retain what they learn as they pursue a career in the healthcare industry. With that in mind, this guide takes a fresh approach to the study of the human body and its functions, placing its emphasis on the connections between the body's systems as opposed to covering them each in isolation. With this book, students will actually learn anatomy and physiology rather than just memorize the facts.

Rating: - A Good Idea, But Needs Work...
Save your money. Whether you are an interested layman looking for an intro and overview, or you are a struggling A&P student looking for a map to find your way through the forest, you will probably find this book frustrating. I have had pretty good luck with other Idiot's Guides, but not this one.
This could have been a pretty good book. With some better editing and some better graphic design it would have been alright. The concept is a good one, create an easy reading A&P guide by eliminating ... Read More
Rating: - Anatomy --- of a book
The book is good for its purpose, however I think that more pictures need to be added. I am in an area of study where I know what a good chunk of the stuff in the book is, however seeing it is much more helpful.
