The STUDY AND REVIEW GUIDE TO ACCOMPANY THIBODEUA'S ANATOMY &amp; PHYSIOLOGY provides a comprehensive learning tool to help students master the many concepts associated with anatomy and physiology. A synopsis of each major concept is followed by a variety of exercises to help students review their understanding of the content. To test recall of anatomical structure, the guide provides anatomy drawings for students to label and review. Clinical challenge exercises help students learn practical application of physiology concepts. Combined with the Anatomy &amp; Physiology text, students are ensured a greater understanding of the complex interrelation of body systems. Brief synopsis of every major concept presented in the textbook provides a comprehensive review of the content. * Learning objectives following each concept synopsis help students plan their study strategy. * A variety of question formats, including multiple choice, true-false, and matching, test students' recall of textbook content. * Detailed anatomy drawings to be labeled by students provide the opportunity to practice recall of anatomy terminology. * Clinical challenge exercises teach students practical application of the physiology concepts. * Complete answers to test questions are provided for instant validation of learning. * Perforated, three-hole punched pages make it easy for students to divide and store study notes by chapter.

Basic Sciences

ANATOMY &amp; 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-color illustrations enhance the narrative.

Anthony's Textbook of Anatomy & Physiology

Structure and Function of the Body

A superb introductory anatomy and physiology text, STRUCTURE AND FUNCTION OF THE BODY presents core anatomy and physiology principles around two central and unifying themes: the normal structure and function of the human body and homeostasis. Elaborate full-color illustrations, centralized themes, simplistic language, and solid learning features encourage student comprehension of the material. Several new features help bring anatomy and physiology concepts to life: Health and Wellness Boxes; Study Tips with collaborative learning activities; a Student Survival Guide and interactive Panorama of Anatomy and Physiology CD-ROM free with every softcover book; and the MERLIN WebLinks with related web page.

This excellent summary reference includes a comprehensive illustrated review of important anatomy and related physiological principles. Where appropriate, the authors have developed summary tables of important physiological concepts such as cardiac electrical conductivity and renal filtration. This useful handbook serves as a reminder reference for students and practitioners who have already completed courses in anatomy and physiology and as a quick reference for individuals who must understand and investigate medical-related information using anatomy and physiology terminology.

Mosby's Handbook of Anatomy and Physiology

This updated third edition includes outstanding coverage of basic anatomy and physiology, plus the mechanisms of disease and pathologic conditions associated with each body system. Two unifying themes are integrated in this comprehensive text: the complementary nature of structure and function, and homeostasis. Homeostasis is used to show how "normal" structure and function are maintained, whereas failures of homeostasis are shown as basic mechanisms of disease. The reader is drawn into the subject by a clear, straightforward style, superior illustrations, and student-friendly features. Included FREE with the softcover text is Body Spectrum: Mosby's Electronic Anatomy Coloring Book CD-ROM.
