Summary

The McFarland/Wise: Essentials of Anatomy & Physiology Laboratory Manual is intended for the one-semester A&P Laboratory course, which is often taken by allied health students. It may be used with the Saladin/McFarland: Essentials of Anatomy & Physiology textbook, or as stand-alone essentials of anatomy & physiology manual in conjunction with any one-semester A&P textbook.

This full-color manual is designed for students with minimal backgrounds in science who are pursuing careers in allied health fields. It includes 25 exercises that support most areas covered in a one-semester A&P course, allowing instructors the flexibility to choose those exercises best suited to meet their particular instructional goals. Each exercise is based on established Learning Outcomes and contains hands-on activities with the essentials-level student in mind.
