Stephen Rogers Peck's Atlas of Human Anatomy for the Artist remains unsurpassed as a manual for students. It includes sections on bones, muscles, surface anatomy, proportion, equilibrium, and locomotion. Other unique features are sections on the types of human physique, anatomy from birth to old age, an orientation on racial anatomy, and an analysis of facial expressions. The wealth of information offered by the Atlas ensures its place as a classic for the study of the human form.

This package includes physical copies of Human Anatomy: Pearson New International Edition, 7/e by Marieb and A Brief Atlas of the Human Body: Pearson New International Edition, 2/e by Hutchinson. The #1 best-selling textbook for the human anatomy course, Human Anatomy, Seventh Edition is widely regarded as the most readable and visually accessible book on the market. The new edition builds on the book's hallmark strengths-art that teaches better, a student-friendly narrative, and easy-to-use media and assessment tools-and improves on them with new and updated Focus Figures and new in-text media references. This edition also features vivid new clinical photos that reinforce real-world applications, and new cadaver photos and micrographs that appear side-by-side with art-all to increase students' ability to more accurately visualize key anatomical structures.

Used in conjunction with the main textbook, the "Activity Manual for Introduction to Kinesiology: The Science of Human Physical Activity" provides outstanding, accessible, hands-on application of the concepts of kinesiology.
Teaching kinesiology courses can be challenging given the scope of material across all the sub-fields. Additionally, there is often a lack of resources to provide expensive laboratory equipment for introductory classes. This manual provides instructors with laboratory experiences that involve all the students in the introductory class, as well as activities for individual students in programs that do not offer lab sections. The labs and activities in the manual require minimal and inexpensive equipment.
Many important features of the manual serve to enhance the textbook:
Activities are provided for each chapterOne or more labs are provided for each chapterAll activities and labs have a clearly stated purpose, an introduction, methods/materials, results and discussion questions, and reference sectionsAll activities and labs have relevant graphics, charts or tables to support learningDiscussion questions stimulate critical thinking and encourage further researchMany of the activities and labs use a cross-disciplinary approach to aid understanding of the material
The extensive range of activities in this manual makes it possible for professors to easily provide numerous opportunities for meaningful application of the study of kinesiology.

Local-regional anesthesia and pain therapy represent two areas of common interest for all physicians. A thorough preparation in functional anatomy and general pharmacology, including familiarity with local anesthetics and analgesics, is considered fundamental background for further study or clinical application of such techniques. Knowledge of the mechanisms of action, efficacies and side effects of the relevant drugs is essential, as is appreciation of possible drug interactions to evaluate eventual toxic effects. Local-regional anesthesia and pain management are being increasing used in diverse medical specialties, including those requiring manual dexterity. In contemporary medicine correct evaluation of the medical outcome becomes essential, especially in relation to the cost-benefit balance, not only in terms of the resources consumed, also and more importantly for the quality of life of the patient.

? The Waldeyer was an absolute must. ...] This book was worth its weight in gold: Didactically and with respect to content, it connected anatomy with physiology and even more important it related anatomy to clinical and real life. ...] I kept the Waldeyer on my desk for many years, especially when I began surgical training. But even today I keep the 17th edition of the Waldeyer in my office. You never know... Prof. Dr. med. Dr. phil. Dr. h.c. Andreas D. Ebert"

Color your way to understanding the human body and its systems with this interactive study guide from Coloring Concepts, designed with serious students and curious learners in mind. A rich resource for high school and college students, as well as general lifelong learners, The Human Body Coloring Book is a fun way to learn about the body and how it works. Designed for people who have never taken an anatomy class (as opposed to Coloring Concept's Anatomy Coloring Book, created specifically for medical students), this educational guide provides an introduction to the body and is based on a regional approach to anatomy versus a systemic approach. It uses Coloring Concepts's unique methodology for kinesthetic learning, which involves physically interacting with a subject to facilitate understanding. Inside you'll find more than more than 175 detailed illustrations accompanied by educational text covering various cells, organs, and systems. The book is divided into eleven sections that breakdown the body into helpful parts and functions, including the organization of the body, the tissues, an overview of regional anatomy, sensory receptors, and internal organs of the abdomen. Incredibly detailed with colorable illustrations, The Human Body Coloring Book will turn curiosity into knowledge and make learning fun!

Museie biopsy is a long-established technique in clinical practice having been introduced by Duchenne in 1868 (Arch. Gen. Med., 11, 5-179). However, the needle method used by Duchenne was not generally adopted, although Shank and Hoagland described a similar technique in 1943 (Science, 98, 592), and open muscle biopsy has for long been preferred in clinical practice, even with the advent of newer needle biopsy methods (Bergstrom, 1962, Scand. J. Clin. Lab. Invest., 14, Suppl. 68, 1-110). The development of enzyme histochemical techniques has contributed greatly to knowledge of muscle pathology. More recently electron microscopy and immunocytochemistry have also been applied to clinical diagnosis of neuromuscular disease. This book is intended to serve as a practical guide in muscle pathology, particularly for histopathologists, and for those in training. As enzyme histochemistry has become more widely available, formalin-fixed methods have become less frequently used in muscle biopsy work. In this new edition of Muscle Biopsy Pathology we have taken account of the advances in classification and histological technique, and in knowledge of neuromuscular diseases, that have emerged since the first editionwas published in 1984. We hope that this book will continue to be used as a practical guide in the diagnosis and understanding of these disorders. 1.
