Product Information
Anatomy & Physiology is an accurate, up-to-date introductory text on human form and function. It presents a large, complex body of scientific knowledge in an easily understood conversational writing style; it focuses on concepts rather than just descriptions to help students unify information. Critical thinking learning opportunities are integrated throughout. The text uses a big picture theme of body function and also explains the body's homeostatic regulation. Many pedagogical features and hundreds of 4-colour illustrations enhance the narrative. New illustrations have been added to the 5th edition. Revised Career Choices boxes end each unit, and current topics (such as anthrax and the human genome project) are addressed in feature boxes. - Provides chapter outlines and key term lists at the beginning of each chapter to give students a short overview of subject content - Written in an easily understood conversational style to facilitate student learning - An inviting full-color design makes the information more accessible, including more than 1300 full-color photos and illustrations to enhance and simplify explanations of difficult concepts - Reinforces learning by prompting students to review with Quick Check questions after major sections of content within the chaptersProduct Identifiers
