Human Anatomy

By Katja Hoehn, Elaine N. Marieb, Katja N. Hoehn, et al.

Book Overview

This book is designed for one-semester or one-quarter introductory anatomy courses that serve students in prenursing, allied health, physical education and athletic training, premedical, prephysical therapy, radiological technology, physician assistant training, predentistry, and other fields. We present the basic concepts of anatomy--gross, microscopic, developmental, and clinical--in a manner that is clearly written, effectively organized, up-to-date, and well-illustrated. We realize that anatomy involves gargantuan amounts of factual material, and we have tried to make this material as logical and accessible as possible. To this end, we present anatomy as a 'story' that can be explained and understood--convincing the students that the structure of the body makes sense.

Human anatomy

I purchased this book as a requirement for a human anatomy class. The book is very detailed, but flows well and the concepts are easily understood. It is one of the better science book I have used.

Human Anatomy & Physiology

This Anatomy book provides great figures and tables that are easy to comprehend, unlike many other similar books. Explanations are given to clarify any question that the student may have.

Even High Schoolers Use It

I am in an Anatomy & Physiology class in my high school. Our teacher went out and bought this book from local colleges used and in both paper and hard back editions. I like this textbook, because it uses a lot of color, diagrams, and real life stories. It also condenses all of your basic A & P in one 200 page book in an easy to read and understand format. I would recommend this textbook for your basic Anatomy and Physiology class.
