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.
