Seeley’s Principles of Anatomy and Physiology (2nd edition)

Book Preface

Seeley’s Principles of Anatomy and Physiology by Philip Tate was carefully designed to give students everything they need in an Anatomy and Physiology textbook and nothing more. A foundation of clear, straight-forward writing, superior artwork, critical thinking based pedagogy, and relevant clinical coverage, have all built a textbook that supports student performance, critical thinking, and optimal study.

Instructive Artwork Promotes Interest and Clarifi es Ideas

A picture is worth a thousand words—especially when you’re learning anatomy and physiology. Brilliantly rendered and carefully reviewed for accuracy and consistency, the precisely labeled illustrations and photos provide concrete, visual reinforcement of important topics discussed throughout the text. Realistic Anatomical Art

The anatomical fi gures in Seeley’s Anatomy and Physiology have been carefully drawn to convey realistic, three-dimensional detail. Richly textured bones and artfully shaded muscles, organs, and vessels lend a sense of realism to the fi gures that helps students envision the appearance of actual structures within the body.

Atlas-quality cadaver images

Clearly labeled photos of dissected human cadavers provide detailed views of anatomical structures, capturing the intangible characteristics of actual human anatomy that can be appreciated only when viewed in human specimens.
