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. (Review Data Last Updated: 2008-11-30 04:15:37 EST)

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.

If you're a visual learner this book is an excellent addition to any physiology course. It's actually fun and it really does reinforce what you're learning.

Used copy,i will not purchase another used copy coloring book. The book is in good condition but it would have been better new and not to have pages colored by someone else.

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. (Review Data Last Updated: 2007-09-27 03:19:41 EST)

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.

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. (Review Data Last Updated: 2007-07-13 03:17:29 EST)

As you are coloring you are going over the terms. When you are done you can see at a glance how the 'terms' are situated and what they are doing. The commentary is also very thorough and helpful. I highly recommend this as a supportive learning method for the subject.

I am a second year vet student. It is often difficult to find extra-helpful books for vet med, so we have to try human med books. This one is excellent and most of the information applies! My friends were arguing about who would get to use this book next! The authors state the information in such a clear cut way that we end up wondering why our instructors make it so complicated! (ie: Atrial Fibrillation: "Anarchy in the heart!")

I found this book hard to read. The print is small and there is alot of it where I think it could have maybe been condensed. Also the relationship between the writing and the pictures was not clear. I like a book that refers to the organ or part of the organ and then tells you to color it. I learn better this way. However, this is the only physiology coloring book that I could find so I was definitely able to make use of it.

As a visual learner studying in the science/maths field, and being an English/Arts major, I found this book incredible helpful in making the basic and more complex areas of physiology concrete in my mind. This in turn has helped me do well in my exams. Worth a read if you're interested in physiology.

This book is really helping me with my anatomy and physiology class. A fun and easy way to learn the basics. If you want or need to learn physiology this book is a great way to start.

This is a wonderful aid in learning physiology. Physiology is one of the hardest subjects to learn, but this visual learning aid makes it easier. I used this book to help me with my anatomy and physiology classes in college. I also highly recommend Tortora's Principles of Anatomy and Physiology. Tortora is a very good author who can explain difficult concepts in an understandable way. For direct test preparation, these are a must--- Anatomy and Physiology Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers with Explanations (Volume 1) and (Volume 2) by Patrick Leonardi. These study guides had similar questions that were asked on my college exams. If you want to get good grades, then definitely get these four books.

This is a great book and I would recommend this book to anyone taking a microbiology class either in undergrad or med school. Since most people are visual learners this books is quite valuable. I also used the following book:
Microbiology Study Guide: Key Review Questions and Answers ISBN: 0971999635 This book is also available. I found this study guide to be very on target on the type of questions that were on my microbiology class in med school. Definitely get both books. (Review Data Last Updated: 2006-03-05 02:54:35 EST)

Don't be fooled by the title, this book in fact will colour up your life. The diagrams are easy to read, and the explanations in each page are wonderful. You will understand difficult concepts with very good cartoons that will be flashing before your eyes, at the test (I loved the explanation about Hb). Don't wait more and buy it. Use it after you've read your big book and the facts will be kept long time in your mind. Wonderful! Hooray for it!

This book reaffirms the adage: Never judge a book by its cover, (or by its title!) This excellent work makes it easy to understand complex structures and functions in physiology. I have used it as a supplementary text for students ranging from 10th grade to graduate students in biomedical engineering. However, color, the reader must, to get full benefit from the book! It has become a classic tool to learn physiology in an entertaining, yet accurate and reliable way. A brilliant idea!
