Abstract
For one-semester courses in human anatomy.
Help students visualize human anatomy
The #1 best-selling textbook for the human anatomy course, Human Anatomy, Eighth Edition is widely regarded as the most readable and visually accessible book on the market. The book’s hallmark strengths – detailed art that teaches better and a student-friendly narrative are enhanced through more prominent in-text media references and updated Focus Figures. Within the text, photos reinforce real-world applications, and cadaver photos and micrographs appear side-by-side with art, working together to help students accurately visualize key anatomical structures.
MasteringA&P not included. Students, if MasteringA&P is a recommended/mandatory component of the course, please ask your instructor for the correct ISBN and course ID. MasteringA&P should only be purchased when required by an instructor. Instructors, contact your Pearson representative for more information.
MasteringA&P is an online homework, tutorial, and assessment program designed to work with this text to engage students and improve results. Instructors ensure students arrive ready to learn by assigning educationally effective content before class, and encourage critical thinking and retention with in-class resources such as Learning Catalytics.
