All photographs and illustrations are in full-color. This manual includes key terms, definitions, and other important features located throughout each chapter. Case histories are used to illustrate the concepts of each chapter. Skill sheets are included to cover psychomotor learning objectives. Review questions are given at the end of each chapter. Each manual includes a bonus CD-ROM that provides additional learning materials, case studies, animations, and learning activities.
