520 Overview: Introduction to the Human Body, 10th Edition
enables allied health professionals to efficiently and
effectively master the essentials of anatomy and
physiology as well as understand the balance between
homeostasis and disruptions to homeostasis. Features such
as Looking Back to Move Ahead help refresh basic concepts
and make connections from system to system and concept to
concept. Rich in clinical resources that highlight
disruptions to homeostasis, the book also includes a
special box in each chapter that focuses on Wellness.
These unique discussions help allied health professionals
make the connections between knowledge of form and
function with optimal healthy choices.
