Overview

Michael G. Wood’s straightforward and complete lab manual guides students through hands-on exercises that reinforce concepts they have learned in their two-semester anatomy & physiology lecture course. The full-color illustrations and step-by-step instructions are designed to help students visualize structures, understand three-dimensional relationships, and comprehend complex physiological processes. Many of the illustrations are from Martini/Nath Fundamentals of Anatomy & Physiology, Eighth Edition, making this lab manual a perfect companion to that textbook. It is also designed for use with any other two-semester anatomy & physiology lecture book.   The Laboratory Manual is also available in Main and Pig Versions.
