Like the book and how it touches on procedures and gets into a certain depth of the anatomy and physiology, but should already know basic A&P before getting this book.Some of the procedures in the book need to explain some risks and techniques in a little bit more depth to allow the reader to understand why and how. But it still provides a good basic knowledge of the procedures.
This book came in great condition and for such a great price! Even though it is a later edition my class didn't require a certain one so I got away with this one for now which is great. The cover is hardly worn and there aren't too many markings on the inside which is awesome! I would highly recommend using this seller and would gladly do so again.
This book is able to cover just about everything needed for an entrylevel ATC. This text covers a little bit of all subjects needed for the position.
Very useful in my sports medicine class. Tons of pictures. As a wrestler, I used this book a lot to look at skin disorder.
I love the content of this book. It goes in depth but is an easy read and very useful to anyone going in to the sports medicine or athletic training field.
This might be minor, but the book smelled funny. other than that, it was okay.
