Anatomy & Physiology


Book Description

"Human anatomy and physiology is a fascinating subject. However, students can be overwhelmed by the complexity, the interrelatedness of concepts from different chapters, and the massive amount of material in the course. Our goal was to create a textbook to guide students on a clearly written and expertly illustrated beginner's path through the human body. An Integrative Approach One of the most daunting challenges that students face in mastering concepts in an anatomy and physiology course is integrating related content from numerous chapters. Understanding a topic like blood pressure, for example, requires knowledge from the chapters on the heart, blood vessels, kidneys, and how these structures are regulated by the nervous and endocrine systems. The usefulness of a human anatomy and physiology text is dependent in part on how successfully it helps students integrate these related concepts. Without this, students are only acquiring what seems like unrelated facts without seeing how they fit into the whole. To adequately explain such complex concepts to beginning students in our own classrooms, we as teachers present multiple topics over the course of many class periods, all the while balancing these detailed explanations with refreshers of content previously covered and intermittent glimpses of the big picture. Doing so ensures that students learn not only the individual pieces, but also how the pieces ultimately fit together. This book represents our best effort to replicate this teaching process. In fact, it is the effective integration of concepts throughout the text that makes this book truly unique from other undergraduate anatomy and physiology texts"--




A Photographic Atlas for Anatomy & Physiology


Book Description

For 2-semester A&P lab course and 1-semester human anatomy lab course A Photographic Atlas for Anatomy & Physiology is a new visual lab study tool that helps students learn and identify key anatomical structures. Featuring photos from Practice Anatomy Lab (TM) 3.1 and other sources, the Atlas includes over 250 cadaver dissection photos, histology photomicrographs, and cat dissection photos plus over 50 photos of anatomical models from leading manufacturers such as 3B Scientific(R), SOMSO(R), and Denoyer-Geppert Science Company. Two-page spreads with cadaver and anatomical model photos side-by-side help students to better learn and identify structures. The Atlas is composed of 13 chapters, organized by body system, and includes a final chapter with cat dissection photos. In each chapter, students will first explore gross anatomy, as seen on cadavers and anatomical models, and then conclude with relevant histological images.




Exploring Anatomy & Physiology in the Laboratory Core Concepts, 2e


Book Description

This brief version of Exploring Anatomy and Physiology in the Laboratory, 3e, is intended for one-semester anatomy and physiology courses geared toward allied health students. Exploring Anatomy & Physiology Laboratory: Core Concepts, by Erin C. Amerman is a comprehensive, beautifully illustrated, and affordably priced lab manual that features an innovative, interactive approach to engage your students and help ensure a deeper understanding of A&P.




Active-Learning Workbook for Human Anatomy and Physiology


Book Description

This companion workbook authored by Amerman helps students actively read and engage with the chapters and reinforce their learning of key concepts. The print version of this workbook is available at no additional cost to the student when packaged with the Amerman textbook. It is also available in the Study Area of Mastering A&P and as editable files in the Instructor Resources in Mastering A&P.




Physiology at a Glance


Book Description

Extensively revised and updated, this fourth edition of Physiology at a Glance continues to provide a thorough introduction to human physiology, covering a wealth of topics in a comprehensive yet succinct manner. This concise guide breaks this often complex subject down into its core components, dealing with structures of the body from the cellular level to composite systems. New to this edition are three chapters on cell signalling, thermoregulation, and altitude and aerospace physiology, as well as a glossary of terms to aid medical, dental, health science and biomedical students at all levels of their training. Featuring clear, full-colour illustrations, memorable data tables, and easy-to-read text, Physiology at a Glance is ideal as both a revision guide and as a resource to assist basic understanding of key concepts.




Discovering Anatomy


Book Description

Discovering Anatomy: A Guided Examination of the Cadaver is designed for anatomy courses that are fortunate enough to have cadavers available; however, it may also be used in courses that utilize other means, such as models, to achieve an understanding of anatomical structures. The majority of this workbook is composed of full-page color photographs of carefully dissected cadavers, black-and-white line art to color and label, and other activities to guide students through the structures and layers of the human body.
