This text is designed to help students develop a solid, basic understanding of anatomy and physiology without an encyclopedic presentation of detail. Great care has been taken to select important concepts and to perfectly describe the anatomy of cells, organs, and organ systems. The plan that has been followed for nine editions of this popular text is to combine clear and accurate descriptions of anatomy with precise explanations of how structures function and examples of how they work together to maintain life. To emphasize the concepts of anatomy and physiology, the authors provide explanations of how the systems respond to aging, changes in physical activity, and disease, with a special focus on homeostasis and the regulatory mechanisms that maintain it. This text has more clinical content than any other A & P book on the market.

Seeley's Anatomy & Physiology PDF

Without page numbers and with no ability to zoom in on figures (making most unreadable), the Kindle edition is not a bargain at $88. With absolutely no marginal production costs, we really ought to be seeing more value for our money. Hopefully the Kindle app features as well as those of the electronic editions themselves will catch up eventually. So far, they haven't.

After a frustrating back and forth with Amazon customer support in which they initially denied that there was a problem with the book, I've gotten my money back for this edition. The tech guy confirmed that this was a McGraw-Hill problem and not a Kindle problem, and was true for all three editions of the book: PC, Mac and Android that he tried, and he had no fix.

In the end, Amazon was helpful and apologetic, but had no solution. This book is (as of Jan 2011) completely useless as an electronic edition.

This Anatomy and Physiology book is great. There are plenty of illustrations that help you see what the book is talking about and charts for quick summary of illness or functions of topics being discussed. There are also Clinical IMPACTs throughout the book which gives the reader information about illnesses and disorders that occur within the system being presented. The end of the chapter summaries for each section are very useful when wanting to quick find information or looking for where to find the information that you want. The writer also wrote it in a way that is understandable, easy to read, and inclusive of relevant information. I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking for an A&P book.
