A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Featuring over 350 detailed line drawings of body systems and body parts, The Anatomy Student's Self-test Colouring Book is an invaluable, hands-on learning tool for students, offering a clear and concise understanding of human anatomy.

Learning and naming the many parts and systems of the human body can be a daunting task for students preparing for careers in the various scientific and medical professions. This highly original book helps make learning a great deal easier. Hundreds of anatomically accurate line illustrations show human body parts and readers are encouraged to shade them in with coloured pencils. It's a simple physical task intended to imprint on students' memories the shape and location of each body part, making later visualization and memory retention much easier. The book has a spiral binding hidden beneath the cover's spine so that pages lie flat for easy colouring. Other features include:

- Tabbed chapter openers for quick reference
- Extra-heavy paper that minimizes show-through
- Every body system and part is presented
- All parts labelled with correct anatomical names

An extra feature is a set of eight transparent overlays illustrating the human body. They simulate the peeling away of layers of tissue to reveal anatomical features, such as muscles, bones, organs, and circulatory system. The overlays are bound into the book with "scissor-perf" lines that show students where to cut. The Anatomy Student's Self-Test Colouring Book is a must-have learning tool for all students and practitioners who require detailed anatomical knowledge. In addition to a substantial and instructive text, it features 144 two-color pages and 32 additional pages in full color.
