Summary: Easy reading
Review: I found this book to be a very easy read. It has great photos and diagrams which illustrate the different concepts. I used the CD rom quite a lot. It has short video clips and tests which are useful.

Summary: If your course requires it, nothing you can do
Review: I had to use this textbook for a class, which you probably do to. So you probably have to buy this one. It was okay, not hard to read, but I won't be keeping it as a reference work. The authors definitely have an agenda, promoting certain kinds of nutrition over others with very little reasoning, also seems to act like a lot of alternative medicine couldn't possible work even when there are studies to the contrary. I guess it handles the rudiments of biology okay. I will be selling this when I'm finished with this semester.

Oh, and there appears to be both a hardcover and a paperback. I bought the paperback used, and it seems to have matched perfectly with the hardcover. Never even used the CD.
