Overview

Pearson eText gives students access to the text whenever and wherever they can access the Internet. The eText pages look exactly like the printed text, and include powerful interactive and customization functions. This does not include the actual bound book. Visual Anatomy & Physiology combines a visual approach with a modular organization and frequent practice. Martini and Ober deliver an easy-to-use and time-efficient book that uniquely meets the needs of today's students-without sacrificing the coverage of A&P topics required for careers in nursing and other allied health professions.
