Description
Renowned and Award Winning Authorship - This unique author team puts years of classroom and content experience into this innovative Anatomy and Physiology resource. Jenkins, Kemnitz, and Tortora have over 75 years of combined classroom experience that they bring to their textbook.* Integrated Media - Each book includes a companion DVD. Icons highlighting content relevant to each conceptual module are included in the text. The DVD is organized by concept as well and provides related content to support a text concept; overviews, animations, and exercises from Wiley's acclaimed Interactions series; and medical applications. For each chapter in the text, the students will find additional (often illustrated) concepts provided as needed to ensure a good reference package; a review quiz; and a list of clinical terminology. Other features of the DVD include a full pronunciation dictionary, a link out to the student companion website and an option which allows the student to simulate an exam for practice.* Available with Wiley PLUS!
