Read it, See it, Master it!
Read it- Ken Saladin explains the material in an engaging, yet efficient way. He puts a premium on the words, and uses student-relevant analogies to motivate the reader.
See it- Using the market-tested art from his A&P text, Saladins illustrations are vibrant and realistic.
Master it- With ARIS and A&P Revealed, students can practice and improve their understanding of the concepts.
From the most pedagogically sound organization to the exceptional art, to the complete integration of the text with technology, Saladin has formed a teaching system that will both motivate and enable students to understand and appreciate the wonders of human anatomy. This distinctive text was developed to stand apart from all other anatomy texts with an approach borne out of 25 years of teaching, unparalleled art, and a writing style that has been acclaimed by reviewers. Designed for a one-semester college anatomy course, Saladin requires no prior knowledge of college chemistry or cell biology.
