Aced Anatomy & Physiology 1
This is the perfect pocket guide that you can take anywhere. It was in my purse all semester and no matter where I was I would pull it out and study. A great tool to supplement your learning. The pages are a sturdy quality and the binder is strong. It can take a beating and still stay in tact. I passed AP1 and this little book will always be in my purse as a refresher tool!

Very worth it.
As a military provider - I wanted to get something for the medics that was a small anatomy reference. This is perfect. It is thick (1" maybe) but very thourough. Better than pocket cards. It has some limited pathophysiology - enough to educate without overdoing it for the intended audience. I would definately buy again for the medics. Great to reference and show/explain things to patients as well. Very happy with the product. Medics loved it.

A great pocket reference but not super thorough
You will find some useful info in here, such as origins and insertions, and relatively thorough diagrams, but it's definitely not meant to be an all-inclusive anatomy reference. This is more for first year med students who want to review basic locations of muscles, nerves and arteries, but only as a quick review or reference. You will definitely see much better pictorial guides in a book with cadaveric images, but the pics in this aren't useless. All in all, it's a nice little pocket-sized reference to go along with your textbooks and a book with pictures of actual cadavers if you need to identify structures in gross anatomy lab.

Absolutely Fantastic
When I first saw this book available on Amazon, it looked quite promising, and it really has delivered! It is the perfect size for any standard or lab coat pocket, light weight, and packed with valuable and practical information. Some have complained of a few minor innaccuracies, however I have encountered none. My one and only complaint about this book is that, while the title implies that this text contains relatively equal amounts of anatomy and physiology information, it only contains the former in any significant way, as the physiological content is negligible. The only reason why this aspect of the book was not detrimental to my allotment of stars is because of the fact that the anatomical content of this book is so useful. Audience: For students needing a quick reference, or anyone with a thirst for knowledge in the field of anatomy.

This is a great and sturdy pocket guide
This is a great and sturdy pocket guide. The pages are made of plastic and are pretty rugged. Very portable and I bring it with me around even when I'm not studying as a quick reference. While this very visual guide is not totally comprehensive, it's what one should expect out of a small-sized, not very thick guide. It serves its purpose and it serves it very well.

It's kind of hard to find things in here and ...
It's kind of hard to find things in here and some of the labeling isn't very clear. I wish it was slightly more comprehensive and removed some of the really basic intro cards. Still I keep it in my scrubs pocket and bring it with me every time to anatomy lab.

this book is in very good shape, it has awesome detailed photos of the whole anatomy. it is small enough to stuff in your little bag, but big enough to see clearly and easy to read. the pages are made of fine quality paper, coated for long lasting use.

Working in a walk in Centre, this was a very handy resource to have by my side. All anatomy structures broken down into muscles nerves etc. I know other practitioners use it.
