Great as a supplement for biology courses

2008-10-06
I enjoyed this book tremendously. If you're a student taking a biology course, it is perfect for review and helps solidify concepts.

Look over the table of contents and see if it correlates well with your studies.

My suggestion is to never color directly in the book. Just make copies and color on those. This also allows you to color in marker, giving you brighter colors that stand out.

Best coloring

As an A&P teacher, I find that students who use this physiology coloring book get it faster and retain the info longer than any other. It is much more accurate than other physiology coloring books. Highly recommended!

Because I am a visual learner, this has been a wonderful adjunct to my textbook and other materials. I love it!

The coloring book is extremely helpful. There were some aspects of Physiology that I was having a difficult time grasping simply reading material from text books and listening to lectures, the coloring book has made understanding many concepts "childs play". I highly recommend this as a supplement to any anatomy/physiology (or even biology) course.

CANNOT BE USED WITH FELT PENS (AS SHOWN ON COVER)

2007-09-21
I have the Anatomy coloring book and absolutely love the series. I use felt pens (the type of pen shown on the cover of both books) and they work perfectly in the anatomy book because *the back of every page is blank*.

I don't know why, but they made a MAJOR error in the Physiology coloring book by printing on both sides of the page. As soon as you color one page with felt tip pens, you will see that it leaks through and destroys the other side. This is such a basic element of the book that I don't understand why it was overlooked.

great way to learn

Super way to learn difficult concepts. I find myself learning in spite of myself. Its really built my confidence too because I have learned that if I stick with the subject long enough, I can get it.

I luv the fundamental idea of this book.

Speaking for myself, I have come to view that the act of coloring does in fact foster retention and understanding. This book really does make learning fun. However, I am surprised that this is the 2nd Edition. This book is in dire need of careful proofreading. I am not qualified to say that there are fundamental errors of physiological facts (this is why I purchased the book) but I have found many many "slip of the pen" type of errors. The least bothersome are a myriad of spelling errors. There are some points where sentences are abruptly cut before completion. Common sense does There are several instances where it is unclear what part is what. Some of these mistakes can not be overcome with common sense making the lesson of the plate very difficult to understand.

P.S. The observant reader will have noticed that I abruptly cut a sentence midway through.

I luv this damn book
