From the Publisher

This book presents anatomy and physiology in a clear, logical, and understandable way, guiding students to a complete understanding of human structure and function. It also provides information on pathophysiology and clinical application in special boxes that enhance and enliven the text without disrupting the flow of each chapter. Essentials of Anatomy and Physiology, second edition, provides many features that make learning easier. These include the many color illustrations prepared specifically for this book and designed to work closely with the text to enhance the student’s understanding of the subject.   
Synopsis
This text for a first course in human anatomy and physiology has three underlying themes: the relationship between physiology and anatomy, the interrelations among the organ systems, and the relationship of each organ system to homeostasis. Four introductory chapters are followed by material on organ systems, which can be used by instructors in any order. New to this third edition are 153 additional depictions of physiological concepts, new clinical pathophysiology application boxes discussing contemporary research, and more questions and critical thinking exercises. Scanlon is affiliated with the College of Mount Saint Vincent. Sanders is a medical illustrator.
