Reviews


The Human Body in Health and Disease
This book is in very good condition.
There was some confusion on the delivery day, but it all worked out

Another school book
The picture it portrayed on Amazon didn't arrive in the mail. This was a way older version of what I had wanted. Other than that, the book arrived in good shape and I was please with the amount of time it took for me to get it.

The Human body in heath & disease
This was a required book for my anatomy course but I love this book. It's clear and straight to the point. Plus the book has an interactive CD which allows you to up-load the chapters onto your ipod

Never recieved my book!
I am very disatisfied. THe amount was taken from my account but I never recieved my book!

Nice book
I am currently a medical assistant student so i needed this book for my anatomy and physiology class. At my school they were selling the book for fifty five dollars which i believed was to much and decided to look online and i found it for 15 dollars here which was amazing to me. The book looks excellent for being used.
