PRAISE FOR THIS BOOK “Many Anatomy and Physiology (A&P) textbooks have been written, most of them are limited by the absence of a signiﬁcant bank of self test material. This book ﬁlls that space by providing the student engaged in active learning opportunities to assess their learning in all the core areas of A&P. The explanatory feedback material following answers to the test questions is excellent. Now the student has a resource that actually guides them towards success. It will complement any course that includes introductory A&P. This book will be a very useful partner to any student new to the subject that is motivated to learn and do well.” Jim Jolly, Head of Academic Unit for Long Term Conditions, School of Healthcare, University of Leeds, UK “This book will be of great beneﬁt to student nurses revising for exams as well as registered nurses wishing to refresh their memory.

The book will help to b
