Anatomy & Physiology: A Complete Introduction is designed to
give you everything you need to succeed, all in one place. It
covers the key areas that students are expected to be confident in,
outlining the basics in clear, jargon-free English and providing
added-value features like summaries of key books and even lists of
questions you might be asked in your seminar or exam. The book uses
a structure that mirrors the way anatomy & physiology is taught
on many university courses, providing a comprehensive introduction
to the structure and function of the human body. Extensively
illustrated, the book also covers modern methods of investigation,
relevant aspects of modern genetics, sports injuries, environmental
and evolutionary considerations, and the physiological aspects of
AIDS. Topics covered include: cells and tissues; the skeleton;
muscle; body coverings and body systems; the upper limb; the lower
