Great customer service from the creaters of the textbook. I scratched the code to hard and I was not able to read the online access information. However, I was able to call customer service at 6AM on Sunday morning and they were able to solve the problem. Text is very dense. I would recommend the pocket companion and the guyton and hall physiology review book for practice problems.

2failed refund  Jun 08, 2009
i attempted to contact the seller via email to return the book because although i was told i needed it the book for class i actually did not. The seller has yet to respond. so i have a book i cannot use and paid $70+ for it. The condition of the book was good, i have no complaints about that.

2Title should be: Concepts Made Complicated  Mar 04, 2009
Ok everyone raves about this book. It is true that this book covers everything you need to know. However, the trick is not to get lost in their ridiculously long explanations that are repeated over and over and over each chapter. Seriously, this book could be condensed to half the size. Further, they mention a couple sentences about a concept and then quit and say "more on this to come later". They probably do that about a thousand times. Truthfully, i just got annoyed by reading the book. It is obnoxious and everything, from their graphs to their flow charts, is made to sound more complicated that it has to be and is encoded in erroneous/needless fluff. Medical students do not have much time, THAT IS TO SAY time is valuable, WHICH MEANS there is not much of it, SO YOU COULD CONCLUDE you should use time efficiently AND THIS MEANS... - if you found the previous sentence pointless and annoying, go with something else, perhaps BRS!

1Stay away!  Jan 11, 2009
"I ordered "The Textbook of Medical Physiology" 11th edition by Guyton and Hall. The books (a 2 volume set) came but the covers look like they have water damage and the pages look photocopied. The text was supposed to have colored pictures, but they are all black and white. The binding is broken on both of the books and when you open the books the pages are not firmly attached and are falling out in clumps due to binding problems. The covers are not firmly attached to the binding of the book either. Overall, these appear to be copies of the text, and nothing similar to the actual book. It's almost as if it was photocopied and put in a binding. The print doesn't even line up properly on the page The figures are only partially visible, and there is noticeable outlining (like from photo copying). Having seen several copies of the book, this is definitely NOT the original text. ". I sent a few emails which were answered and they refused to refund my money claiming I could have already read the 1000 pages of the text book. Over all I WILL NOT AND WOULD NOT buy anything from this seller.

Good detailed explanations. I wish there were more explanatory diagrams, tho. I will keep this text even after the class - good reference
