What is the best physiology book for 1st year?

It this one in my humble opinion.

Crisp, sufficiently detailed with good diagrams and explanations for various phenomena --> this is my Grade A recommendation. Image
I have gone through Ganong, Guyton, Taylor and Boron & Boulpaep ---> those are NOT for beginners.

The Indian textbooks are okayish but the diagrams are pretty terrible.

That is where Lippincott wins hands down.

1) Why is biochemistry so commonly disliked by medical students?

Because they are made to memorize metabolic pathways without rhyme or reason.
2) They spend hours memorizing the structures of amino acids and the Krebs cycle.

Its a classic case of missing the forest for the trees.

They never learn integrated metabolism as a whole and with proper clinical correlation.
3) I started MBBS in 2012 and I have checked out several biochem texts over the years.

Harper is the worst --> for 1st year.

The Indian textbooks don't do much better either.
