The book is great so far and I've really enjoyed the format and images. No where on the book or any publishing information does it say that the software is not usable with a mac. It would have saved me much time and effort and I would have immediately gone for the kindle version. what a shame. The book alone I would give 4 stars but the way its packaged and the lack of information is a bait and switch on the software. Students don't appreciate their time wasted.
This book is not very well-organized. It's not clear what diagrams are referring to what part of the text because some of them don't have captions or explanations; or their labels are lacking. The order of information is a bit strange. I found myself asking questions about certain things that should have been covered in the book clearly, but it misses some basic information. It doesn't have chapter charts with terms on them for quick reference. It's also difficult to tell when a chapter ends and another begins. I wish they had more diagrams and drawings for muscles and bones. There just wasn't enough to explain the orientation of certain parts of the anatomy that they referred to; some parts that they referred to didn't have diagrams at all- even parts that could have been easily diagrammed.
Diagrams could be better and written content needs to be more organized for easier memorization.
I'm not very impressed with the layout and organization of this book
