Elaine Marieb’s clear and friendly writing style emphasizes the relevance of anatomy & physiology to your life and future career. The book clarifies concepts, defines key terms, and offers just the right balance of anatomy, physiology, and clinical coverage to make the content complete without being overwhelming.

This book gives a great overview of human anatomy and physiology for people who do not need it as a detailed course. It provides informative photographs, description over complicated topics, and questions that you can answer at the end of a section to be sure you are understanding the reading. In addition, there are multiple sections in each chapter that are titled "Homeostatic Imbalance." These sections explain different illnesses that affect the homeostasis (the body’s ability to maintain relatively stable internal conditions even though the outside world in continuously changing – page 12) of the body. Every few chapters, there is a page that focuses on a career that corresponds to the specific system that is covered in that chapter. For example, Chapter 13, which covers the Respiratory System, the career that is discussed is the job of a respiratory therapist. It is very helpful to be able to read through these, since it gives you a better idea to what that career entails. There is also a section called "A Closer Look," which discusses a specific illness of that system more thoroughly than it does in the actual text, different ways of scanning the body with CAT Scans, MRI’s, etc. and much more. In Chapter 13, the illness that is explained is asthma. There is also a section at the end of each chapter that explains the how that specific system develops as the baby is growing. I have found that very interesting, since I have learned lots of new things about when specific systems form as the baby grows. For my course, we did not have to answer the review questions or do the critical thinking and clinical application questions, since we have a different tests we take that go over the chapter, so I do not know how much time it would take to answer them, etc.
