Straight A's in anatomy & physiology

Straight A's in Anatomy and Physiology is an excellent review for the NCLEX® and for fundamentals and health assessment courses from the LPN through the BSN level. It follows the unique, highly visual two-column Straight A's format--an in-depth outline review in the inner column and a quick-scan key points refresher in the outer column. Other study aids include "Top 10" Lists that save students time before exams, Time-Out for Teaching tips on patient teaching, Go with the Flow algorithms, and dozens of illustrations. The book and bound-in CD-ROM contain hundreds of NCLEX®-style questions--including alternate-format questions--with answers and rationales.
