BASIC SCIENCE

DESCRIPTION The new edition of Bruce Wingerd’s The Human Body: Concepts of Anatomy and Physiology helps encourage learning through concept building, and is truly written with the student in mind. Learning Concepts divide each chapter into easily absorbed subunits of information, making learning more achievable. Since students in a one- semester course may have little experience with biological and chemical concepts, giving them tools such as “concept statements,” “concept check” questions, and a “concept block study sheet” at the end of each chapter helps them relate complex ideas to simple everyday events. Online Tutoring powered by Smarthinking —Free online tutoring, powered by Smarthinking, gives students access to expert nursing and allied health science educators whose mission, like yours, is to achieve success. Students can access live tutoring support, critiques of written work, and other valuable tools.

FEATURES f f Chapter Features: Learning Objectives, Key Terms, Introduction, Concept Statements, Concept Checks, Learning Questions in Figure Legends (with answers at end of chapter), Health Clinic box, Clinical Terms and Definitions, Concept Block Study Sheet, End-of- Chapter Review Questions, including multiple choice and critical-thinking questions
