Anatomy Physiology Disease Foundations For The Health Professions

"physiology is vital knowledge for all students, and just as significant is an understanding of the abnormal functions of the body. Students seeking careers in the health care field can be doubly motivated when taking an anatomy, physiology, and pathology course, as the personally relevant content also prepares them for their chosen careers. As instructors, we look for a text that is, first and foremost, accurate; is written at an appropriate level for our students-neither too high nor too low; can be customized to accommodate the organization of our individual courses; and will be interesting and appealing to our students"--

In Roiger/Bullock, connections are made between systems sothat students learn how the body functions normally in homeostasis, and howdisruption of homeostasis leads to disease and disorder. With a straightforwardwriting style that engages the reader directly, the authors explain difficultconcepts in the context of routine activities, making concepts easier to grasp.A completely revised art program makes the content more inviting and facilitatesstudent comprehension. Measureable learning outcomes throughout the textbook,workbook, and digital learning and assessment program help direct studentsthrough the content so that there are no surprises. Anatomy & PhysiologyREVEALED icons indicate correlations throughout each chapter to relevant APRimages and content. Roiger and Bullock’s text requires no prior knowledge ofchemistry or cell biology, and is designed for a one-semester, entry-levelA&P course.
