This book works miracles for medical students having trouble in physiology. It has just enough detail, does a wonderful job explaining things, and re-emphasizes concepts multiple times throughout a chapter so you don't forget the material as easily. The text flows very smoothly and contains great diagrams. Get it.

I loved this look as it arrived to me today as I was reading a subject in renal physiology.
I had Kaplan lecture notes in physiology 2012 and Guyton Pocket physiology and BRS physiology 2011.
This one is has easy explanations and that what is needed not merely the equations.
Any way any of the mentioned book has its way in the subject but overall this book has fairly medium-large sized letters, very good illustrations and introduction to the subjects PERFECT.
5+ stars to the Amazon and Editors and Publishers of this book
