Visual Analogy Guide to Human Anatomy Loose Leaf – January 1, 2017
Features include:
1. Visual analogies, mnemonic devices, conceptual illustrations, and labeling and coloring exercises help students learn the details and concepts of human anatomy.
Analogies and other key concepts are presented in a modular format with the text on the even-numbered pages and illustrations and analogies on the facing odd-numbered page.
2. Large, high-quality, original illustrations are presented in two colors.
Students may choose to color these illustrations to aid their comprehension of the material.
3. Helpful icons throughout each book identify microscopic structures, study tips, and two- and three-dimensional structures.
4. For fill-in-the-blank sections, the answers are found on the facing page. This allows students to learn not only though self-quizzing but also through the process of rewriting the correct information in the labeling areas.

- Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2021This guide is PERFECT if you are taking Anatomy and Physiology class, and even has some content that helps with the basics of the animal/eukaryotic cell for Cell and Molecular class work. It is very detailed but broken down in a way that makes it easier to remember the specific system or piece of anatomy you need to study. It utilizes multiple methods of learning, and helps with comprehension through visual aid and some interaction by encouraging the reader to do some coloring/color coding. I am very happy I purchased this to use during my most biology-heavy semester. This is such a great resource that I would definitely consider using it once I graduate and start teaching my own biology students!

I like the coded glossary it has to help you visually remember each system. The charts and graphics are clear and clean. I’m happy I purchased this.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2018This book is definitely helpful when it's time to study. It shows you a good visualization of the bones and more. You can also color it or utilize it however you want. It gives you ways of remembering certain things also.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 20, 2019Very helpful for review and breaks down complex concepts into simpler terms.
Note: there’s an error on pg 24! Number 1 is supposed to be simple squamous epithelial cell as that is the type of tissue and cell being discussed and what is listed as number 1 on the next page.
- Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2021I use this in conjunction with my required A&P 1 textbook and it has really helped with recognizing bodily functions.
