Product Description: Over the past 22 years, Anatomy and Human Movement has grown into a classic textbook, helping students to understand and remember the mechanisms which allow movement to take place. Now in its sixth edition, the approach remains the same – each section of the body is presented systematically where readers are introduced to the bones, then guided through the muscles, joints , nervous system and blood supply...read more

The new 2nd edition of "Anatomy and Physiology" is just what students need to learn introductory anatomy and physiology. A logical organization into 33 short chapters that separate system anatomy from physiology and allows flexibility in covering the body systems and allows for clear differentiation between structure and function. More than 750 full colour drawings and photographs, over 250 of which are new to this edition, help illustrate concepts more clearly. All figures contain figure titles to help identify at a glance the subject of the illustration. The book includes new chapters on Growth and Development and Genetics and Heredity; updated chapters include the lymphatic system and immunity cardiovascular system, nervous system and reproduction. Learning aids include: objectives, key terms with pronunciations, chapter summaries, review questions, and a glossary. Also available is an extensive ancilliary package.

Revised to accompany the Fifth Edition, the Study Guide offers a wide variety of exercises that address different learning styles and call on students to develop their critical-thinking abilities. The three major sections, Building the Framework, Challenging Yourself, and Covering All Your Bases, help students build a base of knowledge using recall, reasoning, and imagination that can be applied to solving problems in both clinical and non-clinical situations.

The McKinley/O’Loughlin/Bidle: Anatomy & Physiology: An Integrative Approach text brings multiple elements of the study of A&P together in ways that maximize understanding. Text discussions provide structural details in the context of their functional significance to integrate coverage of anatomy and physiology in each chapter. Chapters emphasize the interdependence of body systems by weaving prior coverage of one system into textual explanations of how other systems work. These system relationships are also covered in “Integrate: Concept Connection” boxes. All figures are carefully designed to support the text narrative, and carry brief textual explanations to make figures self-contained study tools. Special “Concept Overview” figures in each chapter tie together multi-faceted concepts in 1- or 2-page visual summaries. Applications are presented in “Integrate: Clinical View” boxes to apply chapter content using clinical examples that show students what can go wrong in the body, to help crystallize understanding of the “norm;” clinical scenarios are also used in “What Do You Think?”, “Can You Apply What You’ve Learned?”, and “Can You Synthesize What You’ve Learned?” question sets; and career opportunities pursued by students studying A&P are highlighted at the beginning of each chapter. Everyday analogies and practical advice for remembering material are presented in “Integrate: Learning Strategy” boxes. Chapters end with a summary of media tools available to help learn each chapter’s content.
