AMAZING
| Customer Rating: | | This book is simply amazing and the classic text on physiology. There were so many times in medical school and even now in residency when I was totally confused and clueless about some topic....when I used this book to read up on it, all the facts became crystal clear and easy to understand. Bottom line: GREAT book, highly recommend for med school and beyond!!!! |
The BIBLE of Physiology
| Customer Rating: | R.I.P. Guyton, the best medical scientific writer that the world has ever known. This book is his masterpiece. Believe me, I have read it, this represents the best medicine textbook. Clear, thorough and simple writing. Every single detail of human physiology is explained.
The magic of this great book is that the author mentions several times the details needed to understand a physiological process.
This great man, doctor and scientist had poliomyelitis and couldn't walk, but he instead wrote a masterpiece that will not be forgotten.
Buy it, read it, and then the magic of medicine will capture you.

Great reference text
| Customer Rating:  | | I got this in the post the other day. Very thorough, great reference text. Not at all readable. Nice to have nearby as a reference but not a good text if you're attempting to synthesize material for the first time. |
Not a good book to study for the boards.
| Customer Rating: | | Reading Guyton in medical school is extremely difficult. The book is extremely dilute and very comprehensive. It is so comprehensive, in fact, that it doesn't teach you what you need to know for the boards. If you want to learn all the important points and skip the garbage that isn't important at all, like how pH monitors work, then buy the pocket version of this book. It can be read much faster and it has plenty of detail to it. I highly recommend doing this if your med school class is using Guyton. I also found it helpful to supplement the pocket book with the review book, which has questions. |
Guyton prepares you for the shelf
| Customer Rating: | | I bought both this book and Costanzo for my first year physio class and loved the Guyton book. He explains everything very well so that you understand why systems work the way they do. Costanzo, while easy to read, tends to dumb the information down, and as a result, you end up memorizing facts instead of understanding concepts. At my medical school, we take the shelf as the final, and after reading Guyton I felt really prepared, whereas most of my classmates who read Costanzo felt dazed. |
