Anatomy & Physiology is a complex subject - instructors face the challenge of teaching A&P to their healthcare students in a way that is relatable. This is why instructors need a specifically designed text.
After comprehensive consultation and research, Principles of Anatomy and Physiology for Nursing and Healthcare Students in Australia, 1st Edition has been brought to life by a team of local authors to deliver truly relevant content.
This brand new text brings you content that is regionally specific to Australia and its healthcare priorities, including Indigenous health. The local case studies reinforce the concept of 'thinking like a nurse' - enhancing students' abilities to use clinical reasoning for patient care.
The eBook offers fresh digital learning tools - students will explore Lightboard Videos by local academics, interactive exercises, and connective learning opportunities.
