This book is suited for students beginning their study of the human body through those taking their first college course in human anatomy and physiology. Human Body, the coloring book is a valuable supplement to any anatomy and physiology text. With exercises that can also serve as stand along educational resources for the students, either within the classroom or as assigned homework.

Why Color?

Coloring is an excellent way for students to learn about the structure, anatomy, of their body. It will assist with the memorization that is necessary to learn anatomy.
