I ordered the 6th edition and received the 5th edition. However, delivery was fast, but i still have to return the book. WOuld recommand everyone to ask a question to the seller before ordering the book just to make sure that the book YOU need is the one Seller is selling! ! It sucks when you receive a wrong book and have a quiz next day in the class ! !

I bought this book to go along with my college health class. Very informative, and I could see it being used for personal growth. Some sections were very text like, but it did incorporate fun.

It was the first time I purchase a book from amazon and am very impressed with the service. The book from the seller was in great condition just like brand new. Would definitely purchase again.

I read this book for a college health class. It is full of great information. I love how it personalizes the information for the reader. For example, it includes many surveys that help the reader assess his/her own health in the area described. It is definitely written with a college-age reader in mind; topics often focus on issues young people would be facing. Like the title says, it covers the BASICS; it briefly touches on most areas of health, going into adequate detail but doesn’t exhaustively explore any one topic. It is an excellent overview/introduction to the most common or important health concerns.

I just bought this book, second hand, for $3, because I need it for some college class. The real price for this book is waaaaaayyyy to high.
The information on the book seemed to belong more to a primary school book and it was also kind of biased, if not totally wrong sometimes.
Some information was obsolete, but maybe it was fixed in the next edition even if I doubt it.
If you are required to buy this book for school, you have no choice (but go second hand!!). If not, stay away and find something with more accurate information.
