Great

Recieved item on time, right when we were told it would arrive. Book in very good condition.

A Great Book for many reasons

I am in medical school and although the Martini text does not substitute as a medical textbook, it does have great "cartoon" pictures that help me to visualize difficult biochemical concepts. For those who learn by visualizing what is happening, I would highly recommend this book. Once again, I do not use this as a primary book now, but when I took Anatomy and Physiology at college, I read this book cover to cover. It is much easier to read than other textbooks, and Martini does a very good job of combining medical illnesses/problems with the textbook material.

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.

Well worth the weight

This book is well worth buying, sure it is heavy but the content is invaliuable, the diagrams are clear and easy to understand. The only problem with the book is the weight, the fifth edition has a hardback text book as well as a very usefull aplications manual that shows how symptoms can be looked at as well as giving working examples.The book is a complete package incluiding a CD rom, and a related website as well as two books, and end of chapter summaries and questions help with revising. The only point worth mentioning for other British customers is that the book uses American spellings such as "Esophagus" rather than "Oesophagus" which is handy to keep in mind when looking through the index!

This text was well written and useful in college Anatomy

Martini takes a very difficult subject and puts it into terms that the average student can comprehend. A must for anyone taking Anatomy and Physiology in college or Medical School. This is a text that you will use over and over again, unlike other texts that are bought and never opened.
