DescriptionThis text is designed to help students develop a solid, basic understanding of anatomy and physiology without an encyclopedic presentation of detail. Great care has been taken to select important concepts and to perfectly describe the anatomy of cells, organs, and organ systems. The plan that has been followed for eight editions of this text is to combine clear and accurate descriptions of anatomy with precise explanations of how structures function and examples of how they work together to maintain life. To emphasize the concepts of anatomy and physiology, the authors provide explanations of how the systems respond to aging, changes in physical activity, and disease, with a special focus on homeostasis and the regulatory mechanisms that maintain it. Timely and interesting examples demonstrate the application of knowledge in a clinical context.
Key Features
# Increased Clinical Coverage - In direct response to reviewer feedback Case Studies have been added to the eighth edition. These build on outstanding clinical coverage found in the Homeostasis Summaries, Systems Pathology boxed readings, Clinical Asides, Clinical Focus readings, NEW Clinical Genetics boxes and Process Figures.
# Real-world cases and clinical information appeals to students and helps make the connection between the text and their future career.
# New Genetics Material - Chapter 3 provides basic introduction to genetics in order for students to better understand new findings in this exciting and relevant field.
# Important advances in genetics affects the study of anatomy and physiology in many ways; it's critical to be at the forefront of presenting this information to students in today's classroom.
# New 'Clinical Genetics' boxed readings - The new readings address some of the most significant discoveries and how they affect diseases.
# The Presentation Center - accessible through the instructor?s portion of the ARIS website, features digital assets that were formerly on CD-ROM, plus many other features that can be easily searched and downloaded. Included are:
Art Library: All illustrations in the book (1985), plus the same art saved in gray scale. The images are also pre-inserted into blank PowerPoint slides for ease of use. Unlabeled versions of all 1985 figures are offered, both in color and gray scale formats.
Text-Edit Art: All illustrations (794) are available as Text-Edit art, e.g. art that has removable labels and leader lines for use in lectures, quizzing, and/or assignments.
Photo Library: All photographs from the text (330), including cadaver, bone, histology, and surface anatomy images. Also includes 34 photos saved in unlabeled versions.
Table Library: Every table (200) from the text is provided.
PowerPoint Lecture Outlines: Ready-made presentations that combine art and lecture notes are provided for each chapter of the text.
Active Art Library: Key pieces of art (40) that can be broken down into components or steps and then be rebuilt during lecture to aid comprehension.
Animations Library: Over 100 full-color animations illustrating physiological processes.
# The most comprehensive instructor tool available in the A&P market. And it's simple to use!
# Complete Coverage - The Seeley text will tellstudents needing to pass their nursing boards the 'Why' as well as the 'How', which results in complete comprehension.
# Critical Thinking ? Unlike other anatomy & physiology books, Seeley is based on critical thinking and has made it an integral part of its learning system. The authors didn?t simply tack on an activity or two at the end of a chapter. The authors believe that to truly understand a concept, one begins with the knowledge and then that knowledge is immediately tested, allowing for better comprehension. This is exemplified through questions, end of chapter Critical Thinking questions, as well as additional end of chapter quizzes.
# Exceptional Art ? A highly regarded realistic anatomical art program is a key to the success of Seeley. Richly textured bones, along with artfully colored muscles and organs, give a true understanding to the material. Seeley?s artwork also offers a Multi-Level perspective, to better depict difficult physiological processes. Plus Seeley consistently features illustrations and micrographs side by side throughout the entire art program.
# Homeostasis Summary Figures ? These unique figures are self-contained to provide a summary and illustration of the mechanisms that body systems employ to maintain homeostasis.
# A Resource Reference Guide directs instructors to all relevant A&P resources for each chapter of the text. Bound into instructor's copies, this foldout chart is indispensable for instructors planning their class lectures.
# Finally! All resources McGraw-Hill has to offer in A & P in one place and easy to understand!

Clinical Genetics boxes discuss and define diseases, describe symptoms and discuss possible treatments Clinical topics reinforce and provide application, so students can put their knowledge into practice! Clinical Focus boxes explore the latest research Systems Pathology boxes explore a disease or disorder related to a body system. Integrated PREDICT questions and systems interactions summarize how conditions impact each body system. Students get Problem Solving when they need it!
# How important is it to your students that they be introduced to clinical applications and diseases? How do you like clinical examples to be incorporate into a textbook?
