1: OK Textbook
Considering this was a textbook for me, and probably will be for most buyers, I did not find it of the high standards most textbooks are. I have found some errors in it too. More than once there is "see page *** " in the book. Did the editors of the book not go over this book enough times to have these errors?
But on the good side, the book is also a good compilation of information. Too much information. But for college students that might be a plus. It makes 18 and 19 year olds aware of a lot of health issues, from drugs, alcohol, contraception, etc. etc. the list goes on. In each of the chapteres, dealing with these topics there is a special section geared for college kids. There are also statistics for college kids, and on campus serveys.
So overall, I will give this book 3 and half stars. The author is dealing with a lot of material, and she does a good job of presenting it. Its not her fault that this is a very vast subject, and in order to fit it in some book she has to pack a lot of facts in every sentence. (Translated as Dry).

3: Great BOOK!
This is a great book for anyone looking to do well in Health classes or someone who just wants to work on their nutrition. Its great because there are all kinds of statistics on body mass index, nutiritonal values and even includes the new food pyramid. It was amazing and I really learned more than I thought I would.

4: This book was ok.
I didn't read much of this book. I ended up not needing it for school. I think it was ok for the little bit I read out of it. Sorry if I'm not much help.

5: Deceiving
I ininitally ordered this book, becasue my professor indicated that we needed this book which included the clicker and our local bookstore had been out of stock of it for about a month. When I received this book it was missing the clicker and I eventaully had to re-buy the book and the clicker from the local book store because they do not sell the clicker with out the book.
