These graphic representations review chapter concepts, make connections, and stress the "big picture" in learning and applying the concepts and facts of anatomy and physiology.
Summary Material: Hole places emphasis on tables which are consistent with the narrative, keeping them clear and succinct, and avoiding excessive detail.
From Science to Technology sections preview the technological applications of knowledge in anatomy and physiology that students are likely to encounter in the future, and explain how and why the technology was developed.
