Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

This book takes a hands-on approach that aims to help students learn the essentials of anatomy quickly, easily, and functionally. Students locate anatomical structures on partners and then learn the structures' functions by manipulating their partners' movements. By becoming anatomy 'practitioners, ' they learn what is relevant and applicable to their future professions
