USER REVIEWS
"learning about the human body can be quite a challenge for someone - i know i struggled to understand how bits fit together as i am a visual person, so finding this book which educates me but helps me remember by coloring in body parts has soooooooooooooooo helped me with my studies and i am more comfortable when massaging customers and they ask me questions"

"First off, amazon is selling this at a very good price. I got ripped at my campus bookstore for this. I wish I'd waited to get this here. This is just something I picked up as a supplement to my A&P class. It looks very detailed and I can't wait to start coloring it. It is a very big book! There is a lot of information in here."

"This book really helped me to learn my anatomy by the repetition and order of coloring each section of the body."

"I got this book as a study aid to prepare for anatomy & physiology classes that are required prerequisites for the nursing program I plan to apply to. This book, along with its companion, Physiology Coloring Book, is really very helpful. The plates are beautifully drawn, the instructions for coloring are clear and concise, and the accompanying text provides a useful summary of the anatomical or physiological feature being shown. The information is up to date and appears to have few errors although there is, very occasionally, a typo. The tactile and visual experience of coloring is really good to help retain and understand the information being conveyed. It is much more effective than reading and re-reading text, or staring at diagrams and trying to memorize everything that's labeled. Although I have two college degrees, both are in liberal arts and I finished them in the late 1990s, so I have limited exposure to hard science classes at the college level. By going through these two books on my own, I feel much better prepared for the anatomy & physiology class I'll be starting this fall. I would recommend them to anyone who feels a need for a study aid, wants to prepare for an anatomy or physiology class, or is just interested in how the human body works."
