Ross and Wilson Anatomy and Physiology in Health and Illness

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Medicine
by: Anne Waugh, Allison Grant

April 11, 2006
I've owned this book since my first year of nurse training in 1998. Ten years later and having been qualified for 7 years, it's still in regular use. I recently did my Acute Care Foundation Course for emergency nursing, and out it came yet again. It's easy to understand and logical. Each body system is covered separately, starting with the biology theory and moving on to talk about diseases which can affect that particular system. For anyone who wants to learn about human biology who doesn't like jargon and wants things explained to them in plain English, this book is essential.

Gray's Anatomy for Students: with StudentConsult Access

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Medicine
by: Richard Drake, A. Wayne Vogl, Adam W. M. Mitchell, Adam Mitchell

this is a great, well organised textbook... a very good aid to learning. the only problem is, there's a factual mistake on every other page! all anatomy textbooks have mistakes, due to rushing the books through editing, but gray's is especially bad! make sure you buy another book if you want to gain a more accurate knowledge and read about topics from a number of different authors

As a med student..i found that this book covered basically anything i have needed to know in a simple..easy to understand fashion.

Everyone i have spoken to has a copy of this book..and uses it on at least a weekly basis. The book covers material from the very basics to the complex..and managed to acheive this without being patronising or condescending..all in all a great book

Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine (Oxford Handbooks Series)

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Medicine
by: Murray Longmore, Ian Wilkinson, Tom Turmezei, Chee Kay Cheung

Have had every edition and I still carry a copy in my bag. Anyone doing acute takes who thinks they don't need to reflect on some aspects of some cases will come to grief. I am reassured when I see junior docs carrying a well worn copy.

Mind Over Mood: Change How You Feel By Changing the Way You Think

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Medicine
by: Christine A Padesky, Dennis Greenberger

May 10, 1995
This is an excellent book to make you realise how your feelings are determined by your thoughts, and how you can positively influence your mood by changing the way you think. Some self-help books don't deliver because they're too vague but this book is also very practical, with many useful exercises. It's no wonder that many people are so enthusiastic about CBT and talking about it as an alternative to medication. I do not suffer from depression and was always a fairly happy person but this book has taught me how to be happier still. I would also recommended Eckhart Tolle's the Power of Now for a slightly different perspective and Steve Taylor's Making Time Making Time: Why Time Seems to Pass at Different Speeds and How to Control It for an invesigation ...

Principles of Anatomy and Physiology: WITH Atlas AND Registration Card

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Medicine
by: Gerard J. Tortora, Bryan H. Derrickson

June 20, 2008
Lives up to the high standard set by the previous editions & moves on from them. Now in two volumes which means that it is lighter & easier to use. The free extra book is also a very useful resource. I would highly recommend this to any Paramedic students out there.

I have found this textbook really helpful in my studies. The full audio version on the CDROM, is great for remembering all the muscles and other difficult body parts all my class mates struggled on.

I would say if you are studying Anatomy and Physiology as part of your course, get this book.

The Anatomy Coloring Book

Childrens Toy Shop > Books > Medicine
by: Wynn Kapit, Lawrence M. Elson

July 20, 2001
My husband a dentist bought this book in 1994/5 the second edition and I use it now (he only coloured in the head) I am studying medicine and this book is awesome, the reason being I have a pictorial memory and by learning by colouring it has helped tremendously, in addition it is great when you are running out of time and the table at the back is invaluable giving you a breakdown of the muscle and the nerve supply and root value, I would definitely recommend getting this book for any medical student, I used this book as main core knowledge and built on it its a great starting block, I have limited spacial awareness and the way this books layers each muscle group is a real asset, it separates muscles groups into logical orders making them easier to remember. ...
