Elsevier eBook on VitalSource
Give your students the hands-on practice needed to understand anatomical structure and function! Anatomy & Physiology Laboratory Manual and eLabs 11th Edition provides a clear, step-by-step guide to dissection, anatomy identification, and laboratory procedures. The illustrated, print manual contains 55 A&P exercises to be completed in the lab, with guidance for students including instructions, safety tips, and tear-out worksheets; for instructors, it includes a complete set of hints, special notes, and required materials for each lab exercise. Online, via an access code, eight eLab modules enhance students’ skills with simulated lab experiences in an interactive 3-D environment. From noted educators Kevin Patton and Frank Bell, this laboratory manual provides students with a better understanding of the human body and how it works.
