4th edition,344 pages, $33.95
ISBN 978-0-89641-198-2
This manual
is designed for use in an Anatomy and Physiology course at the
undergraduate level. Concise and easy-to-follow, the format gives
the student ample explanation so that instructor assistance is
minimized. A synopsis precedes each laboratory unit, capturing
the concept and essential content to be studied. The procedure
is presented in a step-by-step fashion with photographs, micrographs,
tables and illustrations providing extra clarification. Lab reports
following each unit are perforated for ease in grading. Each unit
was chosen to provide quality laboratory experience to all students
within the constraints of available resources and facilities.
The material needed seldom requires fancy or expensive apparatus.
