This one is perfect for me
Exactly what I was looking for, new and shrink wrapped. I am a yoga instructor looking for an approachable text on A&P. I had read Kaminoff & Mathews' Yoga Anatomy and Coutler's Anatomy of Hatha Yoga and was ready for a more in-depth treatment. This one is perfect for me. The text reads like a novel and is easy to follow and understand. I'm doing this as home study and have found that the supplemental "Mastering A&P" is worth many times its price for the eText alone. But the real payoff for me is the PAL 3 virtual cadaver. When you double click on a muscle, for example, a CGI view of the skeleton with that muscle appears and demonstrates where it attaches and inserts, then how it moves the skeleton at the joints. To make best use of this feature, you'll already need to know the names of most of the bones of the body ("medial cuneiform").

Very thorough
This book was delivered very fast in great condition, and included a ton of information. Some of the sections are hard to understand, as far as the writing style, but overall got me through A&P I and A&P II with As!

Metabolism.
I liked the all book especially from chp 18-29. That’s what I needed to pass my class.

Quick Shipping and nice and new!
Thanks! I bought it early for next semester! Came in perfect condition! I'm so glad I could find this. i didn't want the loose-leaf version, just messy looking. Came fast!

do not buy the eText extension
I just purchased this book with the eText access. The eText is not yet available and the chapter aides and quizzes are only complete to chapter 6. I can't understand why they would sell the add-on if it isn't even complete.

Very informative and helpful book. Expensive. If you don't need the access card, definitely go used or rent.

Good text but needs a little more work!
It's a good book but very rudimentary. It's not very in depth and explanations or description fall very short. The pictures and diagrams are quite good. The use of clinical sidebars in each chapter is a nice idea.I am not really a fan of Pearson published books, however this one is ok. I have had Gen Chem and Math textbooks also from Pearson and were abysmal. But thus far I like this textbook.
