NOTE: This is a standalone Book and does not include access card/code. 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. Review: DO YOURSELF A FAVOR AND BUY THIS - 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!!!!!!! Review: Very visual. - 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
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.

Comprehensive!
This book is detailed with very useful information that covers in detail the structural components of the human body. This book supplies a lot of knowledge to summarize how all of these systems work together in the optimal function of homeostasis. What a great value this book has been so far me, I am very grateful for access to such information, thank you.

Minor defect but all good
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.

Amazing
the textbook itself is an amazing textbook, but the quality was no where close to new. i feel bad only giving this textbook three stars, but the binding was broke, the spine looked like it was glued back together, there was bent pages and stains all over the textbook. I got the hardcover version, and there was DENTS in it. The book had obviously been poorly treated, and should not have been listed as new condition at all. When doing the return process amazon asked if the dust cover was intact... it didnt even have one. It was thrown into the box with my other items, but the box was in perfect condition when it arrived (late).

Almost perfect condition
So I am thinking that the previous owner of this text never or very rarely used it. I am very happy with my text and the delivery was speedy. Since my A&P class will utilize an EBook I wanted a physical copy of it as well. Only a very small pc of the spine was cut away. Otherwise, a great buy for an excellent price.

Cheap & Beautifully New
After reading the reviews I was expecting a trashed book especially for the low price I paid compared to everywhere else. It came shrinkwrapped and perfectly brand new. I don't know if there's something I'm missing yet but so far it looks like I got a fantastic deal.
