Summary: "Seeley's Essentials of Anatomy & Physiology is designed to help students develop a solid, basic understanding of essential concepts in anatomy and physiology without an encyclopedic presentation of detail. Our goal as authors is to offer a textbook that provides enough information to allow students to understand basic concepts, and from that knowledge, make reasonable predictions and analyses. We have taken great care to select critically important information and present it in a way that maximizes understanding. EMPHASIS ON CRITICAL THINKING Critical thinking skills help students build a knowledge base for solving problems. An emphasis on critical thinking is integrated throughout this textbook. This approach is found in questions at the beginning of each chapter, and embedded within the narrative; in clinical material that is designed to bridge concepts explained in the text with real-life applications and scenarios; in Process Figure questions that apply physiological processes to practical situations, to promote applied understanding; in end-of-chapter questions that go beyond rote memorization; and in a visual program that presents material in understandable, relevant images. Pedagogy builds student comprehension from knowledge to application (Apply It questions, Critical Thinking questions, and Learn to Apply It Answers) Apply It Questions challenge students to use their understanding of new concepts to solve a problem. Answers to the questions are provided at the end of the book, allowing students to evaluate their responses and to understand the logic used to arrive at the correct answer"-- Provided by publisher.
