Customer Reviews

It's a Biology Book (What are you expecting?)

It's a biology book; not the current version, but I assume the human musculoskeletal system hasn't changed that much in the past two years. This version does not contain a set of case studies (trivial at best) but they are available online at the publisher's website. If you are considering buying this version as a discount-alternative to the current [...]version, I would suggest it to be a good idea. The whole industry created around **NEW** versions of text books is a scam to take money from students. How can calculus change so much in two years that a new text is required? Short answer - it doesn't. Buy a used book, and complain to your professors about the burden that costly, unnecessary, **NEW** versions cause to your ability to obtain a relevant education.

Quality book

I ordered 3 textbooks at the same time, and this one from betterworldbooks came first. Came in like new condition. Haven't delved much into the material yet, but if you are going to buy it, get it from betterworldbooks if they have it.

Human Biology

The textbook is easy to read, the chapters are laid out well and it has lots of illustrations for easy understandability.

Human Biology Text

I received this book quickly and in perfect condition. However I realized after buying it that the price is high and it can be found cheaper than the $90 I bought it for. It has been essential to me in my biology class though so I'm glad to have it.
