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.
