Notă biografică
Bruce Colbert
is the Director of the Allied Health Department at the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown. He holds a Master’s in Health Education and Administration, has authored four books, written several articles, and given over 175 invited lectures and workshops at both the regional and national level. Many of his workshops provide teacher training involving techniques to make the health sciences engaging and relevant to today’s students. In addition, he does workshops on developing effective critical and creative thinking, stress and time management, and study skills. He is an avid basketball player, even after three knee surgeries, which may indicate he has some learning difficulties.
Jeff Ankney is the Director of Clinical Education for the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown Respiratory Care program where he is responsible for the development and evaluation of hospital clinical sites. In the past, Jeff has served as a public school teacher, Assistant Director of Cardiopulmonary Services, Program Coordinator of Pulmonary Rehabilitation, and a member of hospital utilization review
and hospital policy committees. He is a consultant on hospital management and pulmonary rehabilitation concerns. Jeff was also the recipient of the American Cancer Society Public Education Award.
Karen Lee is an Associate Professor in the Biology Department at the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown, where she teaches all the anatomy courses, including Anatomy and Physiology for Nursing and Allied Health students. She presents regularly at scientific conferences
and has published several articles on crustacean physiology and behavior. An active member of the Council on Undergraduate Research, she is also the chair of the University of Pittsburgh at Johnstown’s annual undergraduate symposium.

Caracteristici
Medical Terminology Guides While this is not a medical terminology book, understanding and pronouncing medical words is critical to your success. You will find proper pronunciations and word part analysis in he margins where key terms are introduced. Audio pronunciation of terms is contained on both your CD as well as the student Web site.
Clinical Applications - These highlight boxes show the relevance of what you are learning and how that knowledge is needed in clinical practice. This feature includes topics such as aging, major diagnostic studies, and therapeutics.
Pathology Connection - After discussions of Anatomy and Physiology concepts, a special section on related disease conditions will be presented. This will make the connection as to why the understanding of the &P concept discussed is so important to the pathologic process. This will aid the student in understanding abnormal diagnostic test results and why certain treatments are effective for a specific disease
Applied Sciences - Instead of having a separate non-integrated chemistry or physics chapter, the sciences are presented in context.
Amazing Body Facts - These are “that’s awesome” kinds of facts to give an appreciation of just how wonderful the human design is. For example, nerve impulses can travel at speeds of up to 426 feet per SECOND!
Learning Hints We present helpful hints to facilitate learning difficult concepts. These may sometimes be amusing stories or other learning aids.
Test Your Knowledge After a concept is fully developed within a chapter, a “Test Your Knowledge” section will insure you understand what was just covered before moving on and running the risk of getting really lost on your journey
Quick Trip Through Some Diseases Of... This chart provides a valuable quick reference for disease related to a given bo dy system chapter. The chart includes the cause, signs and symptoms, diagnostic tests, and treatment for each disease
Pharmacology Corner - This section will include a variety of medications used in the treatment of diseases that are related to a given body system of the chapter.
Snapshots from the Journey - This is a concise review summary of key points covered within each chapter.
Common Case Studies - Through the use of our two patients within each system chapter, Ray a quadriplegic and Maria a diabetic, the text case studies pull together many of the points discussed within the chapter to show the inter-relatedness of what you are learning. Getting to know these patients well will help you understand how a disease impacts on a variety of body systems. The case study section is followed by end-of-chapter review to test your overall knowledge.
