Physiology Coloring Book, The

Color and memorizing is very useful! Very recommended book.

I got this book as a study aid to prepare for anatomy & physiology classes that are required prerequisites for the nursing program I plan to apply to. This book, along with its companion, Anatomy Coloring Book, is really very helpful. The plates are beautifully drawn, the instructions for coloring are clear and concise, and the accompanying text provides a useful summary of the anatomical or physiological feature being shown. The information is up to date and appears to have few errors although there is, very occasionally, a typo. The tactile and visual experience of coloring is really good to help retain and understand the information being conveyed. It is much more effective than reading and re-reading text, or staring at diagrams and trying to memorize everything that's labeled. Although I have two college degrees, both are in liberal arts and I finished them in the late 1990s, so I have limited exposure to hard science classes at the college level. By going through these two books on my own, I feel much better prepared for the anatomy & physiology class I'll be starting this fall. I would recommend them to anyone who feels a need for a study aid, wants to prepare for an anatomy or physiology class, or is just interested in how the human body works.

Helpful in experiencing another learning mode for this challenging subject Nice to relax to, relieving a bit of the stress and tedious nature of learning/memorizing the subject matter

Pros: it provides a novel way to study physiology; coloring process is fun for many; explanations on the left pages are reasonably detailed; low price. Cons: coloring may become boring eventually; by coloring, you may spend much more time than you should to learn a concept; if you are doing research, consider another classic textbook "Guyton and Hall" seriously. Overall, it you just want to learn basics and love coloring, this book is a pretty good choice.

I really love The Physiology Coloring Book since I’m a science nerd. Coloring the diagrams is calming, but I’m still learning a lot about how the body works. The illustrations are clear and detailed, which makes it easy to understand complex systems like the heart, muscles, and nerves. The pages are single-sided, so I don’t have to worry about bleed-through with colored pencils. Overall, it’s a fun and relaxing way to study, and I’d definitely recommend it to anyone who enjoys science or wants a hands-on way to learn physiology.

Really helps put images ti what your learning and see how they are connected to other things. Great for Anatomy and Physiology students!

The written material is very good, and the images are small but clear. However, the pages are fairly thin, so that if you're in bright light you can even see the printed text on the other side. This means that if you use colored pencils/crayons you're fine, but if use anything other than pastel colored markers/pens, there's bleed through. I ended up using a mix of light colored markers (yellow, sky blue, light pink, lavendar, etc), gel pens, and some colored pencils for when I wanted darker colors. Some of the images have tiny dots and such for which you need a fine tip marker or pen. I tried with pencils and I couldn't get mine sharp enough to stay inside the dots.

The write-ups for each section are well written and provide a good summary. They are a summary so don't expect a lot of detailed explanation. It is a good book to refresh your knowledge or to get an overview. I went into this never having taken an undergrad physio course and wanted to learn the basics before starting my master's program. It has definitely gotten me up to speed. Also, the pictures are great. I am a visual learner, so it really helps to "see" the physiological concepts using graphs, pics, etc. A word of warning, if you use markers to color it will bleed through to the other side. I took care of this problem by photocopying the pages with pics. This wasn't too hard, since the book is laid out with all the write-ups on the left and all the diagrams on the right. I thought about taping the photocopies pages back into the book, but decided instead to scan the book to use as a reference during my master's program. Honestly, for the money, it is a great value.

Si eres alguien visual para estudiar este libro es una joya, tiene conceptos bien relacionados además de que vienen pequeñas explicaciones para relacionarlas con lo que estás con coloreando, puedes incluso usar plumones a base de agua y no se manchan las hojas tan fácil.

It provided a very easy and fun way to actually learn about the body! I received the book on time from the seller which is always satisfying!! Very pleased with everything. Some illustrations can be a bit confusing and hard to understand, but overall this is a great tool to learn about how the body is made up! Would recommend it to everyone who wants to learn about physiology!

I found this extremely useful for my physiology module last term, lot's of brilliantly detailed hand-drawn diagrams with plenty of information, including a detailed passage on the page to the left of the diagrams as well as descriptions within the diagrams. It begins on a broader scope of physiology and becomes more detailed as you progress into the book, beginning with the basics in cell physiology and moving on to topics such as respiration, nervous system, endocrine and hormone regulation. This helped to reaffirm information from lectures as well as to grasp aspects I wasn't fully understanding. Make sure you have a great variety of colouring pencils because you're going to need them!

Contém explicações sucintas de cada assunto, juntamente com esquemas e desenhos claros! A qualidade das imagens poderia ser um pouco melhor, mas não compromete os estudos. Recomendo o produto.

Just a great idea, as it was when it first came to print - highly recommended. Buying it won't increase your knowledge but using it will.
