An Introductory Guide to Anatomy & Physiology

An Introductory Guide to Anatomy & Physiology provides a solid grounding in human anatomy and physiology.

Detailed yet unfussy explanations take the learner through each system of the body and its functions, and every chapter has focused learning objectives, useful tips and helpful hints to facilitate study, and an overview of associated pathologies. An integrated eLearning Resource is also available for learners and colleges.

An Introductory Guide to Anatomy & Physiology is an essential resource for all those studying beauty and complementary therapies, as well as sports therapy, general nursing and para-medicine, and it is also invaluable as a fingertip home reference.
