McKinley/O'Loughlin/Bidle: Anatomy & Physiology: An Integrative Approach, 2e brings multiple elements of the study of A&P together in ways that maximize understanding. Text discussions provide structural details in the context of their functional significance to integrate coverage of anatomy and physiology in each chapter. Chapters emphasize the interdependence of body systems by weaving prior coverage of one system into textual explanations of how other systems work. These system relationships are also covered in “Integrate: Concept Connection” boxes. All figures are carefully designed to support the text narrative, and carry brief textual explanations to make figures self-contained study tools. Special “Concept Overview” figures in each chapter tie together multi-faceted concepts in 1- or 2-page visual summaries. Applications are presented in “Integrate: Clinical View” boxes to apply chapter content using clinical examples that show students what can go wrong in the body, to help crystallize understanding of the “norm.” Critical Thinking questions in “What Do You Think?” engage students in application or analysis to encourage students to think more globally about the content; ‘What Did You Learn’ are mini self-tests at the end of each section that assess whether students have a sufficient grasp of the content before moving on. End-of-chapter “Challenge Yourself” assessments include ‘Do You Know the Basics”, “Can You Apply What You've Learned?”, and “Can You Synthesize What You've Learned?” question sets. Career opportunities pursued by students studying A&P are highlighted at the beginning of each chapter. Everyday analogies and practical advice for remembering material are presented in “Integrate: Learning Strategy” boxes. Chapters end with a summary of media tools available to help learn each chapter's content.

About the Author
Theresa Stouter Bidle received her undergraduate degree from Rutgers University, her M.S. degree in biomedical science from Hood College in Maryland, and has completed additional graduate coursework in genetics at the National Institutes of Health and in science education at the University of Maryland. She is a professor at Hagerstown Community College, where she teaches anatomy and physiology and nutrition to pre–allied health students. She also mentors new full-time and adjunct faculty who teach anatomy and physiology. Before joining the faculty in 1990, she was the coordinator of the Science Learning Center, where she developed study materials and a tutoring program for students enrolled in science classes. Terri has been a developmental reviewer, has written supplemental materials for both textbooks and lab manuals, and is co-author of Eckel/Ross/Bidle, Anatomy and Physiology Laboratory Manual, 3rd edition.
Michael P. McKinley received his undergraduate degree from the University of California, and both M.S. and Ph.D. degrees from Arizona State University. In 1978, as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of California at San Francisco (UCSF) Medical School, he investigated prion-diseases. In 1980, he joined the anatomy faculty at the UCSF Medical School, where he taught medical histology and authored or co-authored more than 80 scientific papers. Joining the biology faculty at Glendale Community College from 1991 to 2012, Michael taught undergraduate anatomy and physiology, general biology, and genetics. Between 1991 and 2000, he researched Alzheimer’s disease while teaching developmental biology and human genetics at Arizona State University, West. His vast experience in histology, neuroanatomy, and cell biology greatly shaped the content in Anatomy and Physiology. Retiring from active teaching in 2012, he continues to be an active member of the Human Anatomy and Physiology Society (HAPS).
Valerie Dean O'Loughlin received her undergraduate degree from the College of William and Mary, and her Ph.D. in biological anthropology from Indiana University. She is an Associate Professor of Anatomy at Indiana University School of Medicine, where she teaches human gross anatomy to medical students, basic human anatomy to undergraduates, and human anatomy for medical imaging evaluation to undergraduate and graduate students. She also teaches a pedagogical methods course and mentors M.S. and Ph.D. students pursuing anatomy education research. She is active in the American Association of Anatomists (AAA) and the Society for Ultrasound in Medical Education (SUSME). She currently serves as President of the Human Anatomy and Physiology Society (HAPS). She received the AAA Basmajian Award for excellence in teaching gross anatomy and outstanding accomplishments in scholarship in education

DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND BUY THIS
Reviewed in the United States on 31 July 2020Verified Purchase
This was PERFECT! I was very cautious when purchasing this because it was sold here for $76 and my school store was selling it for $218. I wasn’t quite sure if I would get a good product because of how inexpensive it was. BUT LET ME TELL YOU, BUY THIS!! I GOT SUCH A STEAL!! I saved SO MUCH MONEY buying this book from this seller!!!! Do yourself a favor and purchase this!! It came in PERFECT CONDITION. It was shrink wrapped and had no damages whatsoever!!!!!!!

Very visual.
Reviewed in the United States on 3 March 2018Verified Purchase
Bought this for a class for next semester so I have yet to utilize it. But I have thumbed through it and must say I like the layout and visuals. I am a very visual learner and many text books have one or two pictures of what their talking about and I feel as if I do not fully grasp what is being described. This shows a very thorough process- or at least it seems to me having only just opened the book a few times and have yet to apply it to my class.

New Book, NO CODE
Reviewed in the United States on 23 January 2020Verified Purchase
I read some of the other reviews, and was skeptical at first and was curious if it came with an access code (it does not), so I ordered the NEW book, not the used one, for $60 and it was brand new. So I am very happy with that, I wish it came with an access code but for $60 I'm not complaining considering my school was selling it for almost $300 with an access code.

New, But damaged
Reviewed in the United States on 7 September 2020Verified Purchase
I was hesitant to buy this textbook due to some reviews. Buy in advance before a college course incase the book comes damaged so you can return and get it replaced. I want to help someone that needs the textbook and maybe skeptical like me. I purchased the textbook brand new and received it within a week. I received my textbook slightly damaged. The back cover of the textbook had a slight tear as seen in the pictures. It was not a big deal to me, but I need the book for my college class that started before I purchased the book. I recommend it, but buy it in advance. I called Amazon customer service and provided feedback and decided to keep the textbook they were great at finding a solution.

Minor defect but all good
Reviewed in the United States on 11 September 2020Verified Purchase
The book is definitely what I needed.
Good price. Delivered 1-day earlier than expected. However, when it arrived, the plastic cover was ripped and the cover of the book chipped a little. I fixed it with glue to make it less noticeable.
I'm still going to give a 5-star review because it would be petty to take off 1 star for something that minor.
