I bought the book with the intent to fill in gaps in my knowledge. When I recieved the book a few weeks ago, I glanced at it for ten minutes and noticed many spelling errors and what I consider to be a couple serious content errors. For example: On page 283, the phrase "fight or flight" has been split by the author to describe both sympathetic (fight) and parasympathic (flight) responses, (the author does indicate that this isn't entirely sensible). However, the physiologist, Walter Cannon, coined the phrase "fight or flight" in the early 1900's to describe just the sympathetic response of the autonomic nervous system (your body is stimulated to deal with danger -- to fight or run away). Likewise the phrase "Rest and Repose" can describe the parasympathetic response. If I had been unaware of this basic physiology this book would have confused me about the basic understanding of the autonomic nervous system.

Because I found content error in the information I do feel I know, I am hesitant to trust the content of the book which would be new to me.

I'm med student, and before taking some classes we must read books that help us understand better before going to the actual text book, the "demystified" series are a great way to start, they put everything in a really basic and simple way, its understandable and helps you get the base knowledge for further reference.
