Customer Reviews

So much detail!
My children abslolutely love this book. They have looking through it ever since it came last week. I have to say that the detailing is great and would recommend it it to any family with children of all ages!

Fabulous !!!!
I am a 1st yr student nurse and I have found this book fantastic in assisting my studies. The illustrations are amazing and the explanations easy to understand. It has helped deepen my knowledge of all body structures.

Fantastic graphics, so much detail, yet so easy to follow!
Having read the previous Student Nurse's review, I decided to purchase this book myself, and I was not disappointed! The fantasitic graphics assist you to follow the body's systems intricately. Cells, Organs and Systems have been magnified to that you can really see the picture of what is going on. I'm sure children would find this book extremely fascinating. Whether or not you need it for study, I'd reccommend having it on your bookshelf for easy reference, as it is quite comprehensive for what may be deemed a 'picture book'.
