Rating:  - missing alot of detail....
Wow, I am really suprised this book garnered as much positive feedback as it has. I am a nursing major, and I was apalled at the lack of detail in this book. I ended up using the A&P text from my 201 class for the majority of this class. Maybe it was the questions my instructor asked, but I constanatly had to go to other sources in order to find the information I needed. If anyone finds themself in this situation, Ken Saladin's text by the same name is the best!!!
Rating:  - Best A&P book for nursing majors
This is a required reading text for anatomy and physiology I and II at the college I attend, and I have nothing but praise for the author and illustrators of this book. It is as comprehensive as A&P can get, and as difficult as the material is to learn, it is broken down into systems so that it is not too overwhelming.
The reason why I give this text 5 stars isn't because of the text -- but the CD and online access that is included. Instead of just seeing diagrams of the heart on paper, ... Read More

I bought the book the first time because I had to. I bought it the second time because I wanted to.

If there is anything you want to know about A&P, this book ... Read More
Rating: - This is one of my favorite textbooks
Although I'm not a big fan of college textbooks since they can be very long and tedious to read, this textbook is to the contrary. It had very relevent information relating to my college anatomy and physiology class that was right on pace with my college lectures. This is a good knowledge base for learning A and P. I especially liked the chapters on muscles and bones. Very interesting. However, when I study for college exams I usually also use study guides. I highly recommend Anatomy and Physiology ...

Rating: - Written to be Understood
I am in my second semester using Elaine N. Marieb's Human Anatomy & Physiology book. She has a great ability to take a very complicated subject and break it down so that it can be learned not just memorized. She doesn't skip the details that are important to learn . She makes it more understandable. This book will be a great reference for years to come.
