 | Principles in Anatomy and Physiology with Adam On-line Atlas by Gerard J. Tortora
Buy used from: £57.15 If you only ever buy one Anatomy/Physiology textbook, make it this one. It's indispensable.
|
 | Anatomy by Henry Gray
Buy used from: £27.54 The original and still (one of) the best.
|
 | Anatomy (Crash Course - US) by Phillip Ameerally
Buy used from: £0.67 As good as any crib sheet with the added advantage you don't have to spend hours writing it yourself.
|
 | The Anatomy Coloring Book by Wynn Kapit
Buy new: £18.23 / Used from: £5.00 This is quite a good book in terms of making Anatomy more accessible, although it's easy to spend forever completing it in lots of pretty colours without actually learning anything.
|
 | Fundamentals of Biochemistry by Donald Voet
Buy used from: £7.00 This is the best big Biochemistry book I've come across.
|
 | Biochemistry Explained: A Practical Guide to Learning Biochemistry by Thomas Millar
This is a great little book if, like me, you've found the higher level Biochemistry difficult to handle.
|
 | Essentials of Human Embryology by William J. Larsen
Buy used from: £16.00 This would be my first choice Embryology text. It's nice and clear with good illustrations.
|
 | Langman's Medical Embryology by Jan Langman
Buy used from: £5.00 Another good Embryology book (covers in more depth the bits Larsen skates over).
|
 | Pharmacology by Humphrey P. Rang
Buy used from: £22.50 I had trouble finding a really good Pharmacology text but this is probably one of the better ones.
|
 | Wheater's Functional Histology: A Text and Colour Atlas (Functional Histology (Wheater's)) by Paul R. Wheater
Buy used from: £21.99 This ALMOST made Histology bearable for me. Almost.
|
 | 100 Cases in Clinical Medicine by John Rees
Buy used from: £7.99 This is a great book for putting into practise the things you've learned without actually killing anyone.
|
 | 250 Cases in Clinical Medicine (MRCP Study Guides) by Ragavendra R. Baliga MD MBA Professor
Buy new: £26.52 / Used from: £18.43 Almost as good as book number 11 (see above); a much more advanced level but a better lay-out divided into systems/specialties.
|
 | Concise Colour Medical Dictionary (Oxford Paperback Reference)
Buy used from: £4.99 This is definitely worth having just for the purpose of looking up terms you don't understand.
|
 | Oxford Textbook of Functional Anatomy: Musculoskeletal System v. 1 (Oxford Medical Publications) by Pamela C.B. MacKinnon
Buy used from: £5.98 DO NOT buy this Anatomy book, or any in this series. They're useless. Trust me.
|
 | Human Gross Anatomy: An Outline Text by Robert J. Leonard
Buy new: £21.85 / Used from: £14.00 This seems at first to be a very useful book but in fact it just ends up being confusing. It won't help you pass your exams so give it a wide berth.
|
 | Biochemistry by Lubert Stryer
Buy used from: £37.97 A lot of people swear by this Biochemistry text but to be honest I found it very confusing and hard to use. NOT recommended.

Listmania!
