This book is an excellent grounding in anatomy and physiology for current and prospective A level students. This book is clear, concise, and perfect for passing A-Level exams on human biology.

[JAYNE MARRIOTT · Rating 5 out of 5]

Excellent book for both learning and refreshing the body system that is essential to know in order to build upon to learn what is illness or what is a normal body process and why it is happening. A go to book that I have used often over a period of time and cannot see me ever not using it. From basic cells to organs and complete bodily systems. Would recommend for all health areas of care for essential knowledge.

It was a nice review of what I already know, but it also had a lot of information that I never knew before. Definitely an advanced anatomy book. I bought it so I could keep it in my home library as a resource.
