Textbook Information:  Human Anatomy & Physiology, 11th - older like the 10th ed., Marieb and Hoehn will do as well.  Human anatomy hasn't changed in like 30,000 years, however the text is used for physiology and advances in learning with that content area has changed so for physiology's sake you'd need the latest.

Additional Course Information:  The other two lab instructors are Arjun Nair Ph.D. and Shaptarupta Ray, Ph.D.

Please make sure you attend the lab into which you are enrolled ON-TIME or you will be dropped the first two weeks.
