Anatomy and Physiology 2e is developed to meet the scope and sequence for a two-semester human anatomy and physiology course for life science and allied health majors. The book is organized by body systems. The revision focuses on inclusive and equitable instruction and includes new student support. Illustrations have been extensively revised to be clearer and more inclusive. The web-based version of Anatomy and Physiology 2e also features links to surgical videos, histology, and interactive diagrams. Please learn more about the changes by previewing the preface.

Not the most interesting read- but it did its job well. I thought I’d take the time to write a real, bone-afied review! I say this tongue in cheek- but the section on the digestion tract really didn't seem in good taste. However l've gotta hand it to them: they really put their finger on it when mentioning appendages. Even still- it took a lot of will power to muscle through it. I suppose I’d best take a leg and get out of here before this becomes a hairy situation. (…the unfortunate thing about hairy situations is that they start to grow on you).
