Dianne Hales does not have a college degree. She is a trade journal author andknows nothing about health. Cengage books are low quality and overpriced.They are pushed on gullible department Chairs. The poor students are forcedto buy them. Avoid this book at all costs. Stand up and demand a better book written bya real Ph.D. Get your money back and quick. Cengage executives I havemet with gloat about how they soak students who are forced into orderingall the "extras." Insel/Roth texts are written by two Ph.Ds. It is publishedby a legitimate company, McGraw/Hill. Unlike Cengage, they have areputation to protect.
I wish the information in this book was required for upper elementary/high school students. It is easy to read and well presented. America's health is failing and we need to teach our young people that they need to take control of their health now.
I am very happy that has textbook rentals. It was a huge help for me after returning to college this year. The book was practically new when I received it, it was in very good shape. I was so happy to be able to return it when I was done so that I didn't have a bunch of books to find space for that I didn't need anymore. It saved me so much money and it included return shipping. I enjoyed using this book too, it was very user friendly and not too technical. It covered a lot of interesting health topics and I enjoyed learning more about the different aspects of health. Great experience.
It's the book I needed for an online class. It arrived in a timely and the quality of the book was great. The most imporant aspect it was very affordable, thank you !
Not as described.
Great book and though we bought it used, it came in great condition. Good content and easy to read and understand.
Good helpful book about health. I learned a lot from difference service and issues via this text book.
Bought it used, but looks like new! Saved a lot of money on this textbook. Great product--Great price.
