Full Description
Master content from the textbook with this helpful study tool! Designed to accompany Copstead-Kirkhorn's Pathophysiology, 4th Edition, this workbook will assist students in understanding and applying material from each chapter in the text.More than 1,500 questions in a variety of question types reinforce understanding, including multiple choice, true/false, fill in the blank, and matching questions, plus labeling exercises and compare/contrast tables.More than 250 case studies are included at the end of each unit, and rationales to the answers are provided in the answer key.Answer key is conveniently located in the back of the study guide.
