SynopsisDramatic improvements in virtually every piece of art, along with a greater selection and integration of technology offerings, makes the new edition an even better tool for every students learning style. *The entire art program has been dramatically revised, resulting in unsurpassed clarity and enhanced visual appeal. The new edition takes full advantage of technological advances in scientific and medical illustration, so that students will see greater contrast among structures, brighter colors, and more visible detail, particularly in muscle, bone, and joint illustrations. See Chapter 9 for best examples. *Elaine Mariebs student-friendly writing uses frequent analogies to explain difficult concepts and engage students interest. For example, writing about the immune system and adapted body defense systems: Faced by a hostile army of microorganisms swarming on our skin, and invaded by airborne bacteria and ravaging viruses, we stay amazingly healthy most of the time. The body seems to have evolved a single-minded approach toward such foes - if you're not with us, then you're against us. Chapter 22. *Focus on the healthy body in a state of homeostasis. Frequent clinical examples dr, Elaine Marieb's engaging writing style and meticulous attention to the learning needs of students continue to be hallmarks of this market-leading text. The author not only reports the latest research and advancements in the field, she does so with a sense of fascination and encouragement. Every chapter has been scrutinized with the goal of helping students understand core concepts and apply their knowledge to new situations. In addition, the text and supplements package offers a convenient, integrated learning system. For example, new end-of-chapter "Learning with Technology" sections make using CD-ROM and Internet resources easier than ever.
