	Human Physiology: An Integrated Approach (2nd Edition)
	By: William C, Ober, Claire W. Garrison, Andrew C. Silverthorn, Dee Unglaub Silverthorn ISBN: 0130176974 Publisher: Benjamin-Cummings Publishing Company Release Date: 04 August, 2000 Bioscience book rank: 346839	Unfortunately, we have reached a point in time where some individuals desire to move to the next level without adequate preparation. I have observed this tendency in a number of the reviews covering various disciplines. You may be able to pilot a Piper Cub but this does not mean that you can pilot a DC-10. <br /> <br />If you understand that physiology is an integrated course requiring some preparation in biology, biochemistry (not a lot), and general chemistry; with this text your future in physiology is indeed bright! Otherwise, consider another discipline. I use(legally)some of the flowcharts and concept maps (in Silverthorn's book) in my general chemistry and general biochemistry courses. My students find them of great value! I also team teach a course in physiology for undergraduates. I am currently lobbying for switch to the Silverthorn text. <br /> <br />Each chapter ends with a summary and questions that are divided into levels. For examle, in Chapter 2 of the second edition the questions are divided into the following levels: (a) Reviewing Facts and Terms, (b) Reviewing Concepts, (c) Problem Solving, and (d) Quantitative Problems. In addition, the student can explore further by visiting the Silverthorn Companion Website. <br /> <br />The book is indeed integrated! Eventhough physiology is the main focus, biochemistry, cell biolgy , membranes, etc., have been skillfully included in a manner that enhance rather than distract from the subject matter. The figures are simple but present clearly the intended message! <br /> <br />There is currently a third edition of the text which I intend to purchase out of curiosity. I am anxious to discover if the second editon can be improved. If you wish to learn relevant and integrated physiology, buy this book now! excellent text! Dr. Dee does a great job at explaining the integration of the body's systems. easy to read text, though not overly simplified; wonderful flow charts & diagrams (these are what got me an A in the class seeing as how i'm a visual learner); "running problems" through out the chapters that test your knowledge along the way. i also highly recommend purchasing/using the accompanying CD-ROM-- very helpful. This book has nothing intergrated in it. This woman who claims to write the best physiology textbooks around must be lying. <p>Her book is [not good]. It leaves out too many details, has a bunch of senseless flow charts that tell you nothing and provides no explanation. I have a copy of her book and it is thinnner the most physiology textbooks. I wonder why its thinner then most other physiology textbooks? Well its because she does not take time to explain the physiology of the human body. <p>She maybe a good teacher but she can't write a textbook for anything. A 10 year old child can write a better physiology textbook. <p>I would not buy this book at all. Bad book!<p>You want a good physiology and anatomy textbook? I recommend Hole's anatomy and physiology textbook. Hole's anatomy and physiology textbook makes Dr. Silverthorn's textbook look like something you clean your car windows with.

	Adler's Physiology of the Eye
	By: Paul L. Kaufman, Albert Alm, Kaufman, Alm ISBN: 0323011365 Publisher: Mosby Release Date: 15 October, 2002 Bioscience book rank: 653497	This book is an excresence. Nowhere is there any evidence of the liberal application of an editor's red ink. I suspect even the authors do not understand their topic; there is no other explanation as to why the subject is so dense and poorly presented. Topics and concepts are introduced without explanation, and nowhere is any information integrated. The subtitle: "Clinical Application" surely has to be some form of joke. <br /> <br />This book ought to be consigned to the annals of history. It is time for another authority; one whose style is not a relic from the 1950s. this book is absolutely dreadful to read. poor delivery, redundant paragraphs and excessive animal experimental data irrelevant to the clinician. it requires much sweat and tears to complete it but you will become extremely knowledgable and unfortunately there is no better alternative with comparable information level.
