About your course materials

Students often have difficulty learning anatomy and physiology because they cannot see how the material relates to their chosen health profession. Anatomy & Physiology for Health Professions unites the science with the clinical pathologies that students will experience in their chosen field, giving them the insight and added drive to be successful in this course. Along with the added clinical content, utilizing MindTap allows the students to interact with 3D models of both normal and pathologic anatomy and the associated physiology. This ability to control the models and explore the different anatomical structures helps to enhance their learning and ability to conceptualize the structures.
