Introduction to Biomedical Engineering

If you are into the biomedical engineering field, you are already very familiar with this expansive text. If not, this text will clearly answer all of your questions!

In general a good overview of the field. However, I would not consider this book an introductory text for freshmen, rather for juniors/seniors with strong background in MATLAB, differential equations and physics; which this book assumes.I suppose that uneven difficulty level and quality of content across chapters is the price to pay when you have different authors for each section.I think the addition of pedagogical features such as: learning outcomes, checklists, examples of best practices would greatly improve this book to a level equal or greater than Saltzman's textbook.

I gave it to my brother because he's considering specializing in that area. He was very pleased. It is written in a way that even i as a medical student can understand. And the book arrived in an excellent condition.

Great condition!!!! Thanks for the book. It arrived as scheduled and was perfectly packaged. Pleasure doing business. Have a nice day.

Description was pretty accurate, took some time to get here, but the conditions were what i was looking for, so i rated him good

LOVE IT.

Really good conditions. Almost new if it wasn't for a scratch. A little one. Nothing to worry about it. What makes me rate it with 3 stars is the fact that all the information is packed within block-paragraphs. Too many detail and information in just one paragraph. You really need to read carefully and pay attention since there is no Boldface or italicized letters, not even the subtitles. It annoying how this book has all valuable information squeezed in the paragraphs.

This book reads more like a collection of technical papers than a coherent text. The writing is uneven from section to section, and it flows poorly. Some sections are poorly written, with terms introduced without definition. The section on computers is particularly bad, with focus on topics that are outdated and specifics that no longer apply in today's world of computing. In several sections the authors go into great detail to no apparent purpose, other than to show off their knowledge of physics, chemistry, and biology.As a reference, this book has utility, and that's why I gave it two stars rather than one. As a text, it's lousy, and I take pity on students who are saddled with it.
