For one-semester courses in human anatomy. A functional approach to human anatomy, available in a multifunctional eText Human Anatomy, the #1 best-selling textbook for the human anatomy course,is widely regarded as the most readable and visually accessible book on the market. Using a functional anatomy theme, the text presents human anatomy as a well-illustrated "story" with the right amount of detail that learners can understand at an introductory level. Analogies and comparative descriptions make anatomical structures more memorable and understandable, and explain how the shape and composition of structures allow them to perform their functions. The 9th Edition features new exercises and questions that help students learn and use anatomical language and interpret real-world medical images while learning basic human anatomy. Building on the functional anatomy approach of previous editions, selected illustrated tables have been enhanced to tell a more cohesive and logical "story" of human anatomy. In the eText edition, dozens of embedded videos and animations help students visualize, manage, and master anatomical terms and structures, along with instant cross-referencing that eliminates the need to flip pages to connect concepts across body systems. Also available as a Pearson eText or packaged with Mastering A&P: Pearson eText is a simple-to-use, mobile-optimized, personalized reading experience that can be adopted on its own as the main course material. It lets students highlight, take notes, and review key vocabulary all in one place, even when offline. Seamlessly integrated videos and other rich media engage students and give them access to the help they need, when they need it. Educators can easily share their own notes with students so they see the connection between their eText and what they learn in class - motivating them to keep reading, and keep learning.

I am THRILLED with this purchase. The Fifth Edition of this book is the required text for an anatomy class I am currently taking. I took a gamble that the Fourth Edition would be close enough to the Fifth to get me through...it is. (Got an "A" on my first exam covering the first 9 chapters.) Some of the figures are on different pages with different numbers so I follow in class with my text and write down the corresponding figure number for the professors lecture. I saved over $140 dollars and now,more than ever, every dollar counts. Well worth it!

Very Helpful
I needed an anatomy book to help me with some studies I am doing. This book is very good: well-organized, excellent diagrams, easy presentation. Reader-friendly! The version I ordered is some ten years old; I can only imagine how good the latest edition must be.
