5At last!  May 03, 2009 By C. Neils
Finally, a bioengineering textbook that I can require in my undergraduate courses with a clear conscience. This is the best text I have found for introductory biomechanics, and has content that supports courses in physiology and systems analysis as well. It has numerous problems with appopriate content and difficulty for undergraduates.

1loaded with technical errors  Oct 11, 2010 By BMEGradStudent
This book is loaded with technical and grammatical errors. Used if for a course I took essentially just for some of the textbook problems. Definitely not worth the price.

5Excellent text  Oct 02, 2011 By renato brandolese
Physics of the human body is a weighty book of quasi 900 pages that explores the complex relationships between physic laws and anatomical apparatus of the human body. Substantially this book is not difficult to understand but more than some chapter requires the knowlewdge of a mathematical approach of a superior order derivates, integrals etc.). In conclusion this issue appears to fit better with bioengeenering than with clinical medicine.

5Excellent Biophysics testbook  Jan 24, 2010 By I. Rouse
This book covers a wide array of topics dealing with the physics of the body. It has an appropriate level of math and includes excellent examples at the end of the chapters.
