Anatomy & Physiology: An Integrative Approach

Anatomy & Physiology: An Integrative Approach

McKinley/O'Loughlin/Bidle: Anatomy & Physiology: An Integrative Approach 2e 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 â€œIntegrate: Concept Connectionâ€ boxes. All figures are carefully designed to support the text narrative and carry brief textual explanations to make figures self-contained study tools. Special â€œConcept Overviewâ€ figures in each chapter tie together multi-faceted concepts in 1- or 2-page visual summaries. Applications are presented in â€œIntegrate: Clinical Viewâ€ boxes to apply chapter content using clinical examples that show students what can go wrong in the body to help crystallize understanding of the â€œnorm.â€ Critical Thinking questions in â€œWhat Do You Think?â€ engage students in application or analysis to encourage students to think more globally about the content; â€˜What Did You Learnâ€™ are mini self-tests at the end of each section that assess whether students have a sufficient grasp of the content before moving on. End-of-chapter â€œChallenge Yourselfâ€ assessments include â€˜Do You Know the Basicsâ€ â€œCan You Apply What You've Learned?â€ and â€œCan You Synthesize What You've Learned?â€ question sets. 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 â€œIntegrate: Learning Strategyâ€ boxes. Chapters end with a summary of media tools available to help learn each chapter's content. Users who purchase Connect Plus receive access to the full online ebook version of the textbook.
