Simple and straightforward, this introductory text provides a clear approach to learning the difficult concepts of anatomy and physiology. It focuses on two unifying themes - the normal structure and function of the human body, and what the body does to maintain homeostasis. Building on the solid foundation of previous editions, this book adds a visual emphasis with realistic animations on a companion CD-ROM and A Clear View of the Human Body, a full-color, semi-transparent insert that shows the body in layers.

• A clear, straightforward approach focuses each chapter on the two core themes - the normal structure and function of the human body, and what the body does to maintain homeostasis.
• Over 350 full-color illustrations, micrographs, and dissection photos depict and reinforce information.
• Chapter tests, review questions, and critical thinking questions let you evaluate your mastery of each chapter's content.
• Boxes and tables make learning easier and show applications to real life, including Health and Well Being, Clinical Applications, and Research, Issues, and Trends.
• Science Applications boxes highlight the contributions made by trailblazing scientists.
• A Common Medical Abbreviations, Prefixes, and Suffixes appendix provides a quick reference and review of commonly used terms.
• A comprehensive glossary provides full definitions of terms, and new words are bolded within the text and listed at the end of each chapter.
• Objectives clearly detail what should be learned in each chapter.
• An Outline Summary ends each chapter to recap important content.
• Quick Check boxes let you assess your comprehension at the end of each passage.
• Body Spectrum Electronic Coloring Book is included on the companion CD, with 80 detailed anatomy illustrations that may be colored electronically or printed out to color and study.

Structure & Function of the Body - , 13e PDF

This is the MOST readable and helpful book for studying the body. It explains the science understandably. The quizzes at the end of the chapters were very helpful for me to memorize everything.

By Judith E. Millman

This book is very helpful with it's corresponding textbook, great for quizzing yourself before tests and quizzes. The study guide offers some assignment opportunities for instructors, so if you don't order it with your textbook you may be kicking yourself later! I'm only 5 weeks in to my Anatomy class and it's already been extremely helpful for me! It's worth the few extra bucks to be sure you have this extra kick of information!
