Celebrated for its precise and flawless illustrations, time-saving navigation and study tools, and engaging clinical content, Essentials of Anatomy & Physiology is crafted especially for students with no prior knowledge of anatomy & physiology and little science background. The Sixth Edition is the most readable, visually effective, and career-motivating edition to date. New Spotlight figures integrate brief text and visuals for easy reading. New Career Paths, based on interviews with people working in key healthcare occupations, bring students in on the everyday work world of healthcare practitioners with a goal toward informing and motivating them about their own future healthcare careers. This book is geared toward students enrolled in a one-semester A&P course and comes with access to MasteringA&P®
