[Dara Sandy]

Great book for an introduction to A&P. Read it for my paramedic class, and it made everything easy to understand. The author was able to break down complex ideas into simple concepts. Our class also used the online testing and online videos, which helped a lot, but I don’t know if that would be available to everyone. I appreciate the jokes and puns thrown in for comedic effect, too! Overall, I aced the A&P section of my course, and I owe it all to the easy to understand book, hard work, and plenty of caffeine!
