Very clear text, elegant displying, excellent illustrations. A "must have" in the medical student's library and it is even useful to the doctor as a quick review of concepts already learned at university

Great, but simple textbook by Medical Student (Chicago, IL USA) 4 Stars
December 29, 2006
This is a great textbook if you want as little detail as possible; it tells you exactly what you need to know and no more. The readings are short and easy. The best part about the textbook is the review boxes at the end of each section. The online access is also a plus because you are able to download and print the figures, which become useful study aids. I would definitely recommend this textbook. It should be supplemented with Pharmacology flashcards or charts, which is why it is only a four out of five stars.
