Designed for English language learners who are entering the health-care field or preparing for college-level science courses, this text provides an introduction to basic anatomy and physiology. It features integrated language development, including functional practice in checking comprehension, giving definitions, and more.

Focusing on a particular organ system, each chapter includes a high-interest opening vignette, extensive illustrations, level-appropriate readings, comprehension checks, vocabulary development and practice, and a section on high-frequency verbs used in scientific contexts. A comprehensive workbook-type review at the end of each chapter includes test items from actual anatomy and physiology texts.
