A streamlined option to equip students for success in A&P and beyond. Anatomy & Physiology, 7th Edition answers the demand for a leaner version of Elaine Marieb and Katja Hoehn's best-selling Human Anatomy & Physiology while maintaining the trusted, accurate, and carefully-paced approach of the more comprehensive 11th Edition. A total of 26 abridged chapters focus on core concepts and allow instructors to expand on broader topics such as pregnancy, development, and genetics outside of reading assignments from the text. The 7th Edition motivates and supports learners at every level, from novice to expert, equipping them with 21st century skills to succeed in A&P and beyond. Hallmark Focus Figures and an expanded number of summary tables and in-line figures help learners practice and develop visual literacy skills. A greater variety and range of self-assessment questions guide students in advancing from mastering A&P terminology to applying knowledge in clinical scenarios and performing the critical thinking and problem-solving skills required for entry to nursing, allied health, and exercise science programs.
