Reinforce student understanding of the concepts in Patton’s The Human Body in Health & Disease! Corresponding to the chapters in the text, this study guide reviews essential medical terminology, concepts, and processes related to anatomy and physiology, and explains how body systems function in health and disease. Each chapter begins with a quick synopsis of the key points in the textbook chapter. A variety of exercises make it easier for students to review and apply key concepts, and labeling of anatomy drawings helps in learning anatomical terms and structures.

    • Know your Medical Terms feature helps familiarize students with the various word parts used in medical terminology and pairs nicely with the Language of Medicine word lists in the main text to reinforce medical terminology concepts that are key to understanding A&P
    • Brief synopsis of core textbook concepts provides a comprehensive review of essential content
    • Crossword Puzzles and Word Finds help students master new vocabulary terms
