Understand human musculoskeletal anatomy with over 300 visual elements.
The human body is a complex machine with many parts working together to facilitate movement. Kinetic Anatomy, Fifth Edition, introduces students to musculoskeletal anatomy by systematically assembling each component of the human body. Layer by layer, readers will study bones, ligaments, joints, and muscles as well as the nerves and blood vessels that supply these muscles that are essential for movement.
Over 300 full-color illustrations, photos, and infographics help students visualize and apply structural anatomy concepts to their own lives. Online learning tools such as anatomy labeling and coloring sheets, review questions, and flash cards can be used to boost student comprehension. Written with the goal of making human anatomy accessible to students, Kinetic Anatomy, Fifth Edition, has a variety of tools to aid in understanding and application, including the following:
- Hands On exercises instruct readers to physically identify anatomical structures on themselves or on a partner
- Focus On sidebars illustrate circumstances in everyday activity that relate to the specific anatomical structures in the text
- Pop Quiz sidebars provide readers an opportunity to strengthen their clinical reasoning skills by asking them to identify the muscles shown in the accompanying photo
- A new glossary helps readers learn the terms used throughout the text
Part I presents the basic concepts of anatomy. The remainder of the text divides the body as follows:
- Part II: The upper extremity
- Part III: The head (brain), spinal column, thorax (heart and lungs), and pelvis
- Part IV: The lower extremity
Part III includes unique coverage not found in other anatomy texts, explaining how the brain, heart, and lungs--as the power centers of the nervous, cardiovascular, and respiratory systems--affect movement. The text includes summary tables that provide a convenient resource for students when seeking the components of a particular joint, including its type, bones, ligaments, and movements, as well as the components of a particular muscle, including its origin, insertion, action, nerve, and blood supply.
Readers of Kinetic Anatomy, Fifth Edition, will learn what structures are involved in movement and how those structures should function, allowing them to identify problems and correct them to enhance physical activity. Anyone interested in how their body functions during physical activity and how overuse or misuse can affect certain anatomical structures will benefit from this book.
