Human Anatomy & Physiology Loose leaf - 2012

From the publisher

This edition features the exact same content as the traditional text in a convenient, three-hole-punched, loose-leaf version. Books a la Carte also offer a great value for your students-this format costs 35% less than a new textbook. With the Ninth Edition of the best-selling Human Anatomy & Physiology, trusted authors Elaine N. Marieb and Katja Hoehn have produced the most accessible, comprehensive, up-to-date and visually stunning anatomy & physiology textbook on the market. Marieb draws on her career as an A&P professor and her experience completing her nursing education; Hoehn relies on her medical education and award-winning classroom instruction-together, they explain anatomy & physiology concepts and processes in a meaningful and memorable way. In the most extensive revision to date--the Ninth Edition presents information in smaller and more digestible bites, making it easier to read and navigate. Plus:

• Twelve new Focus Figures help to build further upon the outstanding success of the previous edition's art program, and to aid in teaching additional tough topics.
  

• Every Homeostatic Imbalance section in the narrative is now assignable as Critical Thinking Questions in MasteringA&P.
• Chapters now conclude with an At the Clinic section, featuring 14 brand new Case Studies-all reviewed by an emergency room surgeon for accuracy and plausibility. Further practice with additional Case Studies, including new teaching notes.
