Since its first edition, Human Anatomy has been praised for its clarity of presentation, its outstanding visually-oriented illustration program, and its ability to help readers understand anatomical structures. Enhanced illustration and photo program. Important topics are updated and new tables have been added that condense and integrate anatomical information. Includes greater number of anatomical structures and more in-depth descriptions. For biologists, medical personal, or anyone interested in human anatomy.
I bought this text book for $9, online, because I couldn't afford the $180 textbook assigned for the class and now all of my classmates look at my book instead of their own. This offers a great visual for learning the body and clear definitions along with helpful guiding instructions makes this a winner.
Although the book was very informative on basic anatomy and had great diagrams, it still makes me cringe. This book did not help me at all. The class was more of a combination of Anatomy and Physiology and this book was strictly Anatomy.
Yes, I now can identify bones, muscles, nerves, organs, etc. However, the book did not help me figure out the interactions between structures.
Maybe not the book's fault? Probably. But I am still angry.
