The McKinley/O’Loughlin/Bidle: Anatomy & Physiology: An Integrative Approach text brings multiple elements of the study of A&P together in ways that maximize understanding. Text discussions provide structural details in the context of their functional significance to integrate coverage of anatomy and physiology in each chapter. Chapters emphasize the interdependence of body systems by weaving prior coverage of one system into textual explanations of how other systems work. These system relationships are also covered in “Integrate: Concept Connection” boxes. All figures are carefully designed to support the text narrative, and carry brief textual explanations to make figures self-contained study tools. Special “Concept Overview” figures in each chapter tie together multi-faceted concepts in 1- or 2-page visual summaries. Applications are presented in “Integrate: Clinical View” boxes to apply chapter content using clinical examples that show students what can go wrong in the body, to help crystallize understanding of the “norm;” clinical scenarios are also used in “What Do You Think?”, “Can You Apply What You’ve Learned?”, and “Can You Synthesize What You’ve Learned?” question sets; and career opportunities pursued by students studying A&P are highlighted at the beginning of each chapter. Everyday analogies and practical advice for remembering material are presented in “Integrate: Learning Strategy” boxes. Chapters end with a summary of media tools available to help learn each chapter’s content.

I actually have this book for an A&P i'm taking in college. I find the illustrations to be very helpful, and the text is not as confusing as a lot of other books I have had to read for the same type of classes. Sometimes there is extra information that really isn't necessary for the level in which we need to know for our class, but it does have a lot of good information. It is a little pricey I will agree, however I payed $360 for my copy of the book, but it came with my lab book and a activation code for connect and a couple of other online A&P websites activation codes. Plus, I get to use this book for A&P 1 as well as 2 so really being I get to use the same book and lab manual and all off the online tools for two classes $360 is really pretty reasonable.

This was required for a summer school course, and the regular text was super-expensive. This format was more reasonably priced and actually easier to access--I just put it into a loose leaf binder and studied from there. I don't know why more books are not available like this--what a boon!
