Customer Reviews

Absolutely love it

Exactly what you expect from a textbook. For this price in exchange for all it's knowledge is one of the best greatest deals and purchase.

anatomy book

Book was in great shape, looked as if it had barely been used. Arrived in a timely manner.

Great purchase!

Book came with everything described (atlas, cd, etc) in wonderful condition! Definitely please with the purchase. Thank you!

Book

Great way to purchase new books for college without all the unnecessary crap the school bookstores package together and force the students to buy..I got what I needed for the class and saved myself $85.00. Brand new right from the publishing house, way to go!

Pretty darn good

I enjoyed reading this book. I bought it to supplement my course and I found it pretty good. He also has a pretty good sense of humor which I appreciated as well. His explanations are very clear and he uses great analogies. Diagrams are pretty good as well.

An Outstanding Text

Martini has made significant changes in the 6th Edition of his Anatomy and Physiology text and they prove to be reader-friendly, more technically accurate than competitors such as Marieb, and accompanied by first-rate illustrations. When considering the accompanying Atlas of Human Anatomy, CD-ROM, and Applications Manual, this text is the best in its class.
