Author Description

This best-selling, restructured laboratory manual now includes an entirely new interactive website built specifically for the A&P lab course. For the first time, MyAandP.com includes Practice Anatomy Lab (PAL(tm)) that provides students access 24/7 to a rich array of anatomy lab specimens, practice quizzes, and simulated lab practicals, gradable pre- and post-lab exercise quizzes for each of the 46 labs in the Marieb lab manual, the new PhysioEx(tm) 7.0, and videos of lab experiments. New co-author Susan Mitchell has teamed up with Elaine Marieb to refine, restructure, and refresh a wide variety of beautifully illustrated activities that help students visualize and understand key anatomical structures and physiological concepts. Designed for use with any A&P textbook, the latest edition of the lab manual also features exercise review sheets that are now integrated at the end of each lab, pared-down activities that make lab time more manageable, dozens of new photos and photomicrographs that dramatically clarify the contrasts among structures, and a new PhysioEx(tm) 7.0 CD-ROM with brand new simulations for the respiratory system on Comparative Spirometry. The cat and fetal pig lab manual versions also include detailed dissection exercises that clearly lead students step-by-step through the dissection process.
