Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

The new edition of 'Principles of Anatomy and Physiology' maintains the balance between structure and function, and continues to emphasize the correlations between normal physiology and pathophysiology, normal anatomy and pathology, and homeostasis and homeostatic imbalances.

Accompany a booklet: A brief atlas of the human skeleton, surface anatomy and selected medical images.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

v. 1. organization, support and movement, and control systems of the human body -- v. 2. Maintenance and continuity of the human body.
