A good guide November 13, 2008
This book was great for understanding and makes it more comprehensive to palpate the muscles when you give a massage. With so many layers of muscle, it is easy to distinguish each one. A very good guide.

Best coloring September 16, 2008
As an AP teacher, I find that students who use this anatomy coloring book get it faster and retain the info longer than any other. It is much more accurate than other anatomy coloring books. Highly recommended!

I am still reading the book but overall the information given is good academically. I am preparing for ACSM examination I feel this book will really help men in my studies. The detail info with diagram really help you to understand each part of the human body, this way no one will forget what he/she is reading.

I purchased both this and the Physiology Coloring Book and they are great! Not only does coloring in the images reinforce what I'm studying, but the text portion (explanations) are added bonuses. I highly recommend both.
