Awesome book!! great for personal use and at school
This book is great, the explanations are the kind you get in your anatomy textbook. Except that this book is focused on nutrition instead of just the human body. Great definitions, and the software you use with the book is fantastic!! highly recommended even if you just want to used just for your personal use.
