Synopsis

For one-semester courses in anatomy & physiology.
 

Guiding students through challenging A&P concepts

Celebrated for its precise illustrations, time-saving navigation and study tools, and engaging clinical content, Essentials of Anatomy & Physiology is crafted especially for students with no prior knowledge of anatomy & physiology and little science background. The Seventh Edition eases students through tough A&P topics, answering the need to help A&P students learn and retain challenging content in the fast-paced one-semester A&P course. New book features, all supported by interactive Pearson Mastering A&P™ media, include new Build Your Knowledge activities, new Spotlight Figures Coaching activities, and new Bone and Organ Dissection Videos that help students study on the go.

Pearson Mastering A&P should only be purchased when required by an instructor. Instructors, contact your Pearson representative for more information.

Pearson Mastering A&P is an online homework, tutorial, and assessment program designed to work with this text to engage students and improve results.
