dry facts, mechanical, dead, lack of feelings, flat, a map not a book, no communication between the author and the reader, not lively, not friendly... Do you want your mind to sound like the book?

De los mejores libros para introducirse en la fisiología básica. Corto, conciso y lleno de buenas ilustraciones.

Recomendable complementarlo con alguna lectura quizás un poco más completa como lo es el Guyton o Best & Taylor. Vale la pena tenerlo en la estantería.

Achei mais confuso que o Guyton mas alguns professores basearam as aulas nele então precisei ler ele também para cardio e pneumo (então falo baseado nessas partes)
