Kinetic Anatomy (PDF/EPUB Version)
$18.99
Description
Created primarily for those who will work in physical activity fields, the third edition of Kinetic Anatomy continues to assert itself as the ideal resource for learning structural anatomy and how it affects movement. The text gives students a firm concept of musculoskeletal anatomy by systematically assembling each component of the human body: bones, ligaments, joints, and muscles on the bones, as well as the nerves and blood vessels that supply these muscles.
Unique to this text is its coverage of the brain, heart, and lungs and how those structures of the nervous, cardiovascular, and respiratory systems contribute to human movement. Other fundamental features also make this resource a valuable tool for learning and teaching human anatomy:
- A one-year subscription to Musculoskeletal Anatomy Review, an online anatomy program, provides an interactive forum for reviewing regional structural anatomy.
- A new chapter on the head completes the regional approach followed in the text.
- More information on muscle and motor units helps broaden information on movement potential in selected sport activities.
- Expanded discussion on joint strength and movement and the function of muscles, levers, and exercise supports understanding of how the human body is constructed.
- New Functional Movement Exercises and Hands On exercises provide students with the opportunity to identify specific anatomical structures.
- An instructor guide, test package, and image bank are available online to instructors.
