dont buy books macca.
you pay 3000 for library and tuition for a very good reason, you know.
although your choice of book to muse over buying is acutally quite good."...reminds me of childhood memories,

How about wait and check them out in the library and decide which one you want.

Just wondering, do exam questions and the like come from the books that they "recommend"? My bro has recommended some books but they're different as he didn't go to Liverpool. Would save a lot if I could use his old stuff!

yep, its fundamentals. but seriously guys, i don't get this whole buying books straight away thang - it ain't gonna make you pass exams better if you own all the books. now reading all the books is a different matter, and that doesnt rely on you owning them 2 months before everone else does.

dont buy books before you start - try out lots of different ones and find the one in each area that you like. And dont necessarily just look at the ones on the booklist - often the booklist is a bit biased (ie members of the teaching staff wrote the book, is pals with the guy who wrote the book, its the book they used back in 1968 etc etc)
Some ones to check out that may not be on the list:
TORTORA + DERRICKSON: Principles of Anatomy and Physiology (11th ed)
A really good book which covers most of the anatomy and physiology you will ever need to know in one book. Also has bits of microbiology, biochem etc thrown in. Also known as "The Big Red Bible"
POCOCK + RICHARDS: Human Physiology the Basis of Medicine. (3rd ed)
This is an AMAZING physiology book - cant tell you how good it is lol
ABRAHAMS: Clinically orientated Anatomy
Really good - well explained with good diagrams and stuff
Oh and I'm on a PBL course and could easily get away with having no books - we have our own private medical library open 24/7 365 days of the year: so dont think PBL means no books supplied by the uni

the opportunity to buys a book comes to those who seek it most .
i picked up tortora for if i remember correctly £1-50 in a charity shop, the anatomy colouring book for a pound, and the Martini book for free, although it sometimes sets the alarm off at library gates (dont ask, macca)"...reminds me of childhood memories,
