Great resource but you might want to wait January 6, 2009 This is an odd one. The book is actually very good and can be helpful, but I hardly used it at all. I found that A&P lab was pretty easy and the coloring book didn't provide enough depth to be useful for lecture exams. I used it the first couple of weeks for anatomical directions and stuff like that, but in the end it wasn't really useful to me beyond that. I found the Netter flash cards to be much more helpful for lab stuff. That being said, I am still giving it a good rating because the quality is very good and it could be good some people.
Helpful Study Tool October 1, 2008 Very helpful as a prep tool for anatomy & physiology exams. Corresponds very well with the Marieb textbook.
Met my needs September 23, 2008 When the professor tells you to buy a book, you do it. What else can I say? It met my needs. I just wish that these books were less expensive.
You actually need this book September 19, 2008 This book as silly as you may think it sounds by the title is quite helpful in your anatomy studies. I was quite surprised at its usefulness in reinforcing the material in the regular textbook. I do recommend this highly.
Very helpful April 5, 2008 3 out of 3 found this comment useful.
It's a really useful book, which is neither too complicated or too easy. I'm studying at university to become a paramedic, and it has been a very helpful tool in the specific anatomy and physiology topics they expect us to understand. The pages held colour pencil just fine - I remember reading a review before buying this which said the pages were too "waxy" and didn't hold pencil well. This isn't true. The pages are fine for applying pencil.
The only thing I must say in a sort of negative light is that you must have another anatomy and physiology book as well as this one - this is more of a quiz book on what you know as opposed to something to teach it to you.
It could be used on its own, as the answers are avaliable at the back of the book, but having a seperate textbook would probably be preferable. It is easier to learn things in context rather than simple question and answer form, in my opinion.
All in all, I would highly reccommend this book to anyone who is a more visual learner and studies anatomy and physiology.
