Dr Jim Jolly Lecturer School of Healthcare University of Leeds. This book is an excellent resource for students and their teachers as it complements all core anatomy and physiology text books and curricula no matter how the content is sequenced. The book covers all of the main systems in the body along with the fundamentals underpinning students’ understanding of core concepts in physiology. The use of a self-assessment approach stimulates students to actively engage with the material while they self-correct and learn. The book is a gift to all nursing students revising for examinations that assess the anatomy and physiology component of their programme. I highly recommend this book.
