Edwin F. Bartholomew received his undergraduate degree from Bowling Green State University in Ohio and his M.S. from the University of Hawaii. His interests range widely, from human anatomy and physiology to paleontology, the marine environment, and “backyard” aquaculture. Mr. Bartholomew has taught human anatomy and physiology at both the secondary and undergraduate levels and a wide variety of other science courses (from botany to zoology) at Maui Community College. He is presently teaching at historic Lahainaluna High School, the oldest high school west of the Rockies. He has written journal articles, a weekly newspaper column, and many magazine articles. Working with Dr. Martini, he coauthored Essentials of Anatomy & Physiology Structure and Function of the Human Bodyand The Human Body in Health and Disease (all published by Benjamin Cummings). Mr. Bartholomew is a member of the Human Anatomy and Physiology Society, the National Association of Biology Teachers, the National Science Teachers Association, the Hawaii Science Teachers Association, and the American Association for the Advancement of Science.
