Full Description
"Many Anatomy and Physiology (A&P) textbooks have been written, most of them are limited by the absence of a significant bank of self test material. This book fills that space by providing the student engaged in active learning opportunities to assess their learning in all the core areas of A&P. The explanatory feedback material following answers to the test questions is excellent. Now the student has a resource that actually guides them towards success. It will complement any course that includes introductory A&P. This book will be a very useful partner to any student new to the subject that is motivated to learn and do well."Jim Jolly, Head of Academic Unit for Long Term Conditions, School of Healthcare, University of Leeds, UK"This book will be of great benefit to student nurses revising for exams as well as registered nurses wishing to refresh their memory. The authors have a good awareness of the areas where students struggle, and have focused special attention on those."Dorothy Adam, Lecturer, The Robert Gordon University, UK "This book is the perfect companion to help nurses explore their own understanding of this key subject.
