Book Reviews of Health: The Basics (7th Edition) (Donatelle Series)
Book Review: Terrible book
Summary: 1 Stars
From what I can tell, this book has no editing. The self-help quizzes were often nonsensical, the information was either common sense or obsolete, and some information had been proven incorrect several years before the date of publication. The quizzes that the instructor gave us had incorrect "correct" answers. By that I mean the quizzes that came with the teaching edition of the book. The professor, in fact, notified us of this at the beginning of the class. I feel sorry for the men who took this class, since the book seemed to be geared more towards females. The only thing this book does, if taken seriously, is cause the reader to become hypochondriac.
