Based on

Memmler’s The Human Body in Health and Disease

, this

textbook is an excellent primer that focuses on normal anatomy

and physiology. With an accessible design and a robust multimedia

electronic ancillary package, the Tenth Edition is even more engaging

and understandable for students with diverse learning styles. It builds

on its solid foundation by seamlessly integrating the placement and

relationship of the art and text. A new Full Body insert has been added

to the text to assist students in performing a virtual dissection of the

human body from skin down to bone.

Features

• Robust instructor and student ancillary packages including access

to the

PASSport

to Success, an online learning center tailored to

learning styles.

• Updated design seamlessly integrates the placement and

relationship of the art and text, making it easier for students to

learn A&P.

• A new full-body transparency insert has been added to the text to

assist students in performing a virtual dissection of the human body

from skin down to bone.

• Real full-color dissection photographs from

Rohen’s Color Atlas of

Anatomy, 6e

show students exactly what they would experience in

a dissection lab.

• Icons point the students to related activities (animations, videos,

etc.) on the companion Website.

• Case Scenarios integrated throughout each chapter show students

how content is applied to real-life situations.

• Feature boxes include:

– A&P in Action boxes open each chapter with a familiar scenario

that integrates chapter content into a real-life setting, bringing

the information to life for students.

– A&P in Action Revisited boxes, which appear later in the chapter,

apply concepts the student learned in that chapter to the opening

scenario.
