Laboratory Investigations in Anatomy & Physiology

This concise lab manual is designed for instructors who wish to avoid "cookbook"-style lab instruction for Anatomy & Physiology. Each of the exercises in Laboratory Investigations in Anatomy & Physiology provides useful background information for completing the exercise without duplicating information that can be found in the students' A&P textbook. Through the use of an engaging "connective learning" methodology, author Stephen Sarikas builds each lab exercise step on the previous one, helping students to understand complex ideas and make connections between concepts. By consistently emphasizing the relationship between structure and function, the author challenges students to ask questions and interpret what they experience in the lab.
