, PREFACE
Although never a simple task, the study of the human body is always fascinating.
Over the years, thousands of students have benefited in their studies and enjoyed
the process of working through this book. Whether you are taking a one- or
two-semester course, you will find this book invaluable to the study of anatomy
and physiology.
What’s New to This Edition?
The twelfth edition of the Anatomy & Physiology Coloring Workbook continues
to serve as a review and reinforcement tool to help health professional and life-
science students master the basic concepts of human anatomy and physiology.
We have helped students by making the following revisions:
• New crossword puzzle exercises have been added to every chapter.
• New streamlined presentation of exercises has been created.
• Updated terminology has been added throughout the book.
• Seventeen figures have been revised.
• New figure illustrating the skeletal muscle has been added.
• New exercise and figure illustrating the blood flow through the heart
have been added.
• New groupings of terms have been added to the elimination-type exercises.
• Direct instructions for coloring exercises were introduced, replacing “as you
wish” coloring sections.
Scope
Although this book reviews the human body from microscopic to macroscopic
levels (that is, topics range from simple chemistry and cells to body organ
systems), it is not intended to be encyclopedic. In fact, to facilitate learning, this
workbook covers only the most important and useful aspects of human anatomy
and physiology. Pathophysiology is briefly introduced with each system so that
students can apply their learning. Where relevant, clinical aspects (for example,
muscles used for injection sites, the role of ciliated cells in protection of the res-
piratory tract, and reasons for skin ulcer formation) are covered. To encourage a
view of the human body as a dynamic and continually changing organism, devel-
opmental aspects of youth, adulthood, and old age are included.
Learning Aids
As in previous editions, multiple pedagogical devices are used throughout the
book to test comprehension of key concepts. The integration of a traditional
study guide approach with visualization and coloring exercises is unique. The
variety of exercises demands learning on several levels, avoids rote memoriza
tion, and helps maintain a high level of interest.
