New to this edition, the free Essential Study Partner CD-ROM, accompanies the text. It contains high quality 3-D animations, interactive study activities, illustrated overviews of key topics in the text, and supplementary quizzing and exams that students will find extremely valuable. A CD-ROM icon has been placed throughout each chapter to remind students that this important learning tool can assist them in reviewing the concepts.

The Dynamic Human 2.0, which offers a pictorial review of each human system, has been revised to have greater student appeal. The Mader Home Page also contains interactive exercises to help students master the objectives of each chapter and provides further information on most topics discussed in the chapter.
