- Reviewed in the United States on November 27, 2018I bought this book to help me in a class (even though it was toward the end of the class when I bought it) and it seemed to help me understand diseases much better. Even if I thought I understood a disease, this book explained it much simpler than I was originally making the diseases out to be. By the way, the illustrations really help a lot as well! I highly recommend this book for anyone struggling in Pathophysiology!
- Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2019Great product. This is a great supplement to my Advanced Pathophysiology class for FNP. I recommend this book. It's easy to follow and no too wordy like textbooks can be.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 11, 2025I got a 91 in patho. But the bookkkkk lol it’s very helpful, i actually bought the mental health one now that im in that class (nursing school)
- Reviewed in the United States on November 5, 2020Excellent read so far! I previously bought "anatomy and physiology" and "cardiology" and decided to give a "visual" one a try...yep, it's very visual all right! Lots of cartoons make it fun and easy to look at, but even so it can get a bit overwhelming... lots of useful information...
Not as much information on each subject as I'd hoped, but I suppose they had a lot to cover...they go through what looks like the basics; I'm no expert yet, but they have similar information in the other book of theirs that I bought..anatomy and physiology.. they do however have more in depth additions for example on the inside of a cell.. again, very well drawn and portrayed.
A little about myself: I'm an artist with an interest in health information...not sure where its gonna take me, Good Lord Willing, but its sure fun:)!...

4.0 out of 5 stars Amazing illustrations!
The "Incredibly Visual" books are fantastic for illustrations (& some photos), they are definitely the best I have seen -- so excellent for visual learners. There is a lack of adequate textual information -- but this is a "visual" book so I'm not surprised. Please note that these books are very thin for what you are paying. I did not look at the page count before purchasing and I wish I had. I was expecting a much larger book (my fault, not complaining, just making an observation). That being said, the book is printed on quality paper and (like I said), the illustrations are amazing! I wish this company would come up with a way to combine the regular "Made Incredibly Easy" with the "Made Incredibly Visual" books. Highly recommended if you are a visual learner but be aware that it is not meant to be a sole source of information (for school) and it's a little light in the page count.
