Hi all, I'm just wandering what anatomy and physiology books you are being 'advised' to read/buy - I am 12 years qualified and although i have a background in ITU, I have been out of the NHS for nearly 5 years now and would like to get the grey cells working again! TIA

I am biologist not nurse but I like the marieb A&P too. The Tortora and Derrickson book is good too

We were told to have Tortora when I trained 7 years ago.

Ross and Wilson is popular.

Martini's a bit more user friendly then Tortora, it has the same pictures in it though.
