Product Description

This attractive, newly designed set of Barron’s Anatomy Flash Cards makes an ideal study aid for med school students, nursing students, and health care trainees who are preparing for tests. Each card pictures a human body part labeled with its medical name, location in the body, and function. A total of 265 4" x 6" cards show muscles, bones, and organs, and are color coded according to their general function in the human body. An important new feature in this second edition is a related Internet resource that contains electronic color images of each flash card. Students can now connect to Barron’s special anatomy Web site and enter a unique code allowing them access to the interactive Web site. Once logged on, students can use the site’s interactive technology to test themselves on every detail contained on the cards, and even create playlists of particular systems or areas where they require further study. The cards come boxed with a full-color, anatomically accurate poster that shows the human body and its major parts, as well as a toggle so cards can be pulled out and studied on-the-go. The poster unfolds to size 11 3/4" x 16 1/2".

Customer Reviews

Anatomy Flashcard, Conveniet
I found these cards good for studying and learning about bones and muscles for my anatomy and physiology class. The pictures are well-done, the cards are handy, easy to carry around when you are doing errands. Other study aids I found very useful were:

"Anatomy and Physiology study guide: Key review questions and answers with explanations volume 1, 2, 3 by Patrick Leonardi (This has great questions and answers that you need for exams in college)

Also, Key Facts for Anatomy and Physiology by Patrick Leonardi (wonderful summary of the facts when your pressed for time)

A very good anatomy and physiology textbook I was assigned is
"Human Anatomy & Physiology by Elaine N. Marieb (liked the way she writes, made learning more pleasurable)

Helpful and convenient
I am taking a 2-semester anatomy and physiology course now and these cards have been a great help. They're convenient to use - I carry a section in my bag and review them when I have 10 minutes here or there. The drawings are really good, and unlike another reviewer I have not found any errors. The only downside is integumentary (skin) system isn't included. But other than that, I have no other complaints. I am very happy I bought these.

GREAT!!!
They are a great way to help learn the human Anatomy. They have good easy pictures to follow. There are a few mistakes in the set but you will know when you see them. For the price they are good learning tool.
