      Strange black dot on the bottom of the book
      I noticed a strange black dot marked on the bottom of the book pages. It was shrink wrapped that way. I paid $118+ dollars for this brand new hardcover book and I expected it to be with no flaws.

      5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Textbook
      Reviewed in the United States on August 16, 2023
      Verified Purchase
      My pathophysiology professor required a "textbook" on pathophysiology and a separate textbook on physiology, which I purchased, but it was difficult to follow with course syllabus and the pathophysiology book was a little bit too elementary. As such I decided to purchase this book and I am very pleased with the level of detail and most importantly I do not need a separately book on physiology. Separately I am using this book as a reference tool. Compared to the 2 other books I purchased, this book contains solid high value information. Another thing I find important, which was missing from the other pathophysiology "textbook" but included in this textbook, are the numerous citations and actual photographs alongside the artistic renditions - this is key.

      Verified Purchase
      This is a well-written and edited textbook. I am using this in NP courses and finding it valuable. I am a student and a book nerd so I keep all books that I feel are valuable, this one is a keeper that I will refer back to in the future. Downside is it is heavy, so I purchased a book stand that is padded which works great for lap reading.

      4.0 out of 5 stars This book is heavy!
      Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2024
      Verified Purchase
      I bought this book because I needed an up to date pathophysiology textbook and because it was highly recommended. So for content it gets 4 stars. But. there is so much information in it that it's rediculously heavy- it weighs a ton. Seriously. I think it should have broken it into volumes 1 & 2 because it's so cumbersome to move the shelf to the desk or from work to home.
