5.0 out of 5 stars Great book for people heading into healthcare professions
Reviewed in the United States on 8 March 2014
Verified Purchase
I am a student planning to head into the healthcare and this book is the most detailed textbook I've ever had. Anatomy & Physiology is a 2-sequence course that nearly everyone that heads into healthcare has to take, and there are many misconceptions or stories about the course material. Naturally, A&P is a challenging course, but with a good instructor, good study habits (& motivation to study), and a good textbook, you should be set!

The authors of the book, Tortora & Derrickson try their best to explain difficult concepts to the reader in a way that isn't super complex, but relatively reasonable. The diagrams and pictures are AWESOME at pointing out different body parts, and my favorite part are the explanations of physiology diagrams--such as the skeletal muscle contraction process (everyone knows this, right?). The authors number the steps in the picture and in the nearby text, are the same numbers with explanations telling you what is happening. I followed the steps in the picture and then looked at the explanations, which assisted me in understanding the whole process. It was very helpful in learning the different systems and actions performed by various cells.

A must have for any student heading into healthcare field!!

5.0 out of 5 stars better than what I expected
Reviewed in Canada on 21 February 2013

I needed this particular book in order to complete an on-line course. Of course, I looked first on-line to see if there was anything less expensive...and I came accross this one. I didn't realize at the time of my purchase, what an advantage it is to be able to pull out just the pages I need vs carting the whole book with me. The book itself is very well written and the illustrations really help understand new concepts. I received my book in less than five business days and was able to get started right away.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pricing is the BEST around without a doubt!!!!!!
Reviewed in the United States on 13 February 2014

Amazon had the BEST price for a brand new book, I searched numerous sites and none of them compared to Amazon! It was easy from start to finish and the delivery was very fast and arrived before originally quoted! This was my first time ever purchasing from Amazon, which now makes it my first choice every time and I tell everyone to at least try it once, and I have not heard a bad thing from people I personally know! The savings will blow your mind cause I know at the school book store a used version was $198.00 and new was $264.00 when I finally found the right new price at Amazon it was $158.00 but the savings did not end there. Unknowingly Amazon is linked with Chase which in turn let me redeem my award points at the time of checkout which gave me final total including 3-5 day shipping of..............................$54.08.......................................Beyond satisfied!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great beginner physiology text
Reviewed in Canada on 25 January 2014
Verified Purchase
This text is really nice in that it can explain the concepts of anatomy, physiology, and even histology in a brief and clear manner. It is easy to read and correct in its information. I used it in undergrad physiology class and found it quite valuable as a beginner. The level of detail in this book is not adequate for further study such as during an actual physiology degree or a medical degree, but as a text for a single class in physiology it is quite good.

5.0 out of 5 stars All textbooks need to have a binder version like this book
Reviewed in Canada on 10 September 2015

All textbooks need to have a binder version like this book! It gives you amazing textbook quality pages but allows you the flexibility to just carry the chapters you need for class. Plus since it's in a binder you can put in pages with your notes as well.

The textbook itself is a great resource for anatomy and physiology and really does a great job of explaining all the basics you need to know :)
