|
Bruce Wingerd's The Human Body: Essentials of Anatomy & Physiology - 2nd color edition is recommended for use in 1-semester courses at universities, colleges, vocational schools, and high schools.
It is specially designed to help students learn by using the process of concept building. Instead of simply memorizing a term by its definition or literal description, the student is encouraged to visualize its meaning and its place within a larger mental picture. Learning becomes easier and lasts longer because of the mental connections that are forged.When this style is combined with a carefully constructed balance between anatomy and physiology, the result can lead to personal and professional growth.
Since the first publication of The Human Body: Concepts of Anatomy & Physiology in 1994, many suggestions for improvement have been made, and changes have also occurred in scientific knowledge and medical practice. These ideas have been integrated in this Essentials version to produce an improved learning tool for students.
It remains the author's hope that students will not only gain important insights into the human body by using this text but will also experience a sense of marvel and wonder at the body's amazing design and intricate workings.
