Excellent introduction to human biology

This book was the text for an introductory course on human biology I recently took. The book is ideally suited for this purpose due to the following strengths: the writing is clear and concise, the content is interesting, the level of detail offers meaningful depth without being overwhelming, practical information about personal health issues and diseases is interspersed throughout, and the graphics are excellent. Outside of the classroom, I anticipate that many people would find the book suitable and enjoyable for self-study. I suggest buying the hardcover version because the paperback is somewhat flimsy.
