In spite of all the papers that others have written about the manuscript, there is no complete survey of all the approaches, ideas, background information and analytic studies that have accumulated over the nearly fifty-five years since the manuscript was discovered by Wilfrid M. Voynich in 1912. This report pulls together all the information the author could obtain from all the sources she has examined, and to present it in an orderly fashion. The resulting survey will provide a firm basis upon which other students may build their work, whether they seek to decipher the text or simply to learn more about the problem.
The new edition of Principles of Anatomy and Physiology maintains the superb balance between structure and function. It continues to emphasize the correlations between normal physiology and pathophysiology, normal anatomy and pathology, and homeostasis and homeostatic imbalances. The acclaimed illustration program is also even better along with the redevelopment of many of the figures depicting the toughest topics to grasp.
An innovative art program of generously sized illustrations ? each including a key concept statement and review question -- provides a consistent learning environment enabling students to make the connection between text and visual elements. A concise narrative, praised by students for its straightforward and easily comprehensible writing style, emphasizes scientific content over extraneous detail. Exhibits ?specially designed self-contained lessons -- provide students with the extra help needed to learn the numerous structures that constitute certain body systems ? most notably skeletal muscles, articulations, blood vessels and nerves. The duel themes of homeostasis and disruptions to homeostasis are effectively presented through the relevant use of in-chapter applications, end-of-chapter disorder boxes, and end-of-chapter lists of medical terminology. Continued coverage of scientific research and breakthroughs in understanding the human body keep the book on the cutting edge. Carefully integrated learning aids, such as pronunciations, word roots, summary tables, and cross-references complement the readable narrative. An extensive supplements package with aids to facilitate the variety of teaching and learning styles.
