For more than three decades of revising Anatomy & Physiology, I've wanted to share the author team's thoughts about the choices we make as we update content, integrate new study tools, and reorganize chapters. Gratified by the success of my previous blogs that reach out to A&P teachers and students in a more general way, I realized that a blog is a great medium in which to dialog specifically about the Anatomy & Physiology suite of learning resources.
And I occasionally share a few anecdotes from the history of this book, my previous partnership with coauthor Gary Thibodeau, current Patton Team members Frank Bell, Terry Thompson, Peggie Williamson, and other collaborators over the years, and some behind-the-scenes adventures.
I also hope that you'll use the comment feature of this blog—or reach out to me personally—to ask questions and offer feedback. We can thus form a community of professionals interested in helping each other help the A&P students of this generation become successful.
