Product Description

Award-winning author Elaine N. Marieb brings her unique understanding of readers' specific needs to this popular book. Marieb's clear and friendly writing style emphasizes the relevance of anatomy and physiology to readers' lives and careers. It clarifies concepts, defines key terms, and offers just the right balance of anatomy, physiology, and clinical coverage to make the content complete without being overly detailed.

About the Author

For Elaine N. Marieb, forging a relationship between her students and the anatomy and physiology concepts that will form the basis of their careers has always been a priority. Having gone back to school to get her R.N. degree and an M.S. in gerontological nursing when she was already a college teacher, she is uniquely able to understand the needs of both instructors and students. Elaine is Professor Emeritus of biology at Holyoke Community College, Holyoke, Massachusetts, where she taught anatomy and physiology for 25 years. She has also relocated to Naples, Florida, where she is now Visiting Professor at Edison Community College in nearby Fort Myers, Florida. She keeps in touch with many of her former students, whose experiences in allied health careers provide insights into the changing needs of A&P students.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Book., 8 Nov 2005

By	"onedaisyduke" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Essentials of Human Anatomy & Physiology (International Edition) (Paperback)

What a fantastic book! Every chapter is well written ~ easy to follow pictures ~ review/knowledge questions at the end of each chapter to test understanding and the CDRom is a foolproof learning tool, again monitoring your weaknesses/strengths. Wish I'd bought it 6 months ago!

4.0 out of 5 stars A superior survey text of human anatomy and physiology., 28 Jun 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Essentials of Human Anatomy and Physiology (Paperback)

Marieb's latest edition provides the beginning anatomy student with a readable and informative text. The reading level is best suited to undergraduate students, and the photographs and diagrams stimulate student interest and understanding. Especially useful are the sections on "Developmental Aspects" of anatomy, which includes morphological and physiological changes from embryonic to geriatric stages. While this edition includes updated information since the 1997 edition, some professors and students may prefer the 5th edition (1997) because it is in hardback; the 6th edition is available only in paperback as of this review. Either edition is superior to other texts aimed at similar audiences on the basis of its clarity, readability, and organization.
