Great textbook
I have found this textbook really helpful in my studies. The full audio version on the CDROM, is great for remembering all the muscles and other difficult body parts all my class mates struggled on.

I would say if you are studying Anatomy and Physiology as part of your course, get this book.

I found it useful
I need a good basic introductory book, and this works well for me. It explains things simply. The CDROM is a nice touch, it include an audio version of the book which will be useful for revision, the graphics on the CDROM are handy for course work.

Need to sort their inaccuracies!
As the course book for the ITEC diploma in A&P it is disappointing how many errors there are in this book. Our tutor is keeping a log of them so as to contact the publisher. The explanations are clear and straightforward, but finding errors makes me slightly less secure about the veracity of the rest of it. Perhaps this is because there isn't a medical editor, but 3 beauty therapists-turned-ITEC examiners. It has been helpful to me to read other books alongside so as to get a more definitive picture. However, with the exam based on the course book, do you choose to answer what is right, or what the book says??!! Not the sort of dilemma you should expect to have when studying at this level - or any level, come to that!
