Great Sub for New Edition

Thanks for the item. It saved me the higher cost of purchasing the newer edition and it is completely compatible with this quarter's class.

Nutrition

This book is very insightful and not hard to read. I have had many in the past you need a medical dictionary along with a regular dictionary to get through. This book flows very well and is a book I will never get rid of as I plan on using it to look back on over and over again.

Excellent
