Average Rating: out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Awesome book, thank you!
I'm very pleased that I bought this book. I really liked the pictures of specific conditions and diagrams of affected areas. I am a visual and auditory type of student, hopefully in the future you can include a CD/DVD accompanying the book.
