This is the loose-leaf version of Kinetic Anatomy, Fourth Edition,
which offers students a less expensive, printed version of the
text. Kinetic Anatomy, Fourth Edition With HKPropel Access, gives
students a firm concept of musculoskeletal anatomy by
systematically assembling each component of the human body. Layer
by layer, readers will study bones, ligaments, joints, and muscles
as well as the nerves and blood vessels that supply these muscles
that are essential for movement.With full-color visual aids and
activities that invite readers to apply their understanding of
structural anatomy to their own lives, the fourth edition is
ideally suited for students studying physical activity because it
explores how the structural anatomy of the human body facilitates
movement. Part I of the text introduces the basics of structural
anatomy. It describes how bones, joints, muscles, nerves, and other
essential anatomy work together to allow for fundamental movement.
Part II details the anatomy of the upper extremity region,
including the shoulder, elbow, forearm, wrist, and hand. Part III
of the text explores the anatomy of the head, spinal column,
thorax, and pelvis. These chapters include unique coverage not
found in other anatomy texts, explaining how the brain, heart, and
lungs-as the power centers of the nervous, cardiovascular, and
respiratory systems-affect movement. Part IV discusses the anatomy
of the lower extremity region: the hip, thigh, knee, lower leg,
ankle, and foot. Parts II, III, and IV each end with a summary
table that offers a quick reference for the components of the body
region featured in that part. Kinetic Anatomy, Fourth Edition,
contains nearly 400 photos, illustrations, and infographics to help
readers visualize structural anatomy and engage with their
coursework. Throughout the book, Hands On exercises instruct
readers to physically identify anatomical structures on themselves
or on a partner, and Focus On sidebars illustrate circumstances in
everyday activity that relate to the specific anatomical structures
in the text. Pop quizzes provide readers an opportunity to
strengthen their clinical reasoning skills by asking them to
identify the muscles shown in the accompanying photo. The fourth
edition is further enhanced with the addition of new online
learning tools -all of which can be assigned, and progress tracked,
by instructors directly through HKPropel: Anatomy labeling and
coloring sheets offer students nearly 100 interactive activities
that test their knowledge of anatomical structures and function.
Learning activities; true-false, multiple-choice, and
fill-in-the-blank questions; and functional movement exercises
ensure students have a firm grasp of key points from each chapter.
Chapter quizzes (assessments) may also be assigned; these are
automatically graded to test comprehension of critical concepts.
Readers of Kinetic Anatomy, Fourth Edition, will learn what
structures are involved in movement and how those structures should
function, allowing them to identify problems and correct them to
enhance physical activity. Anyone interested in just how their body
functions during physical activity and how certain overuse or
misuse can affect certain anatomical structures will benefit from
this book. Note: A code for accessing HKPropel is included with all
new print books.
