Mastering Muscles & Movement – Enhanced E-book provides an interactive, strategically organized approach for learning the muscles, bones, joints, nerves, and movements of the human body.

The Enhanced E-book includes a print replica of the physical book, plus 250 extra pages of supplemental material. In addition, the e-book has extensive interactive navigation features to easily access all sections of the book, and to link tables and figures in the main text to the supplemental material in the appendices.

Using a replica of the print book maintains the page layouts that are essential for the book's brain-friendly approach. Learn more about the approach used in the physical book here: Physical Book Description.

This Enhanced E-Book version of MMM contains a fixed-page replica of the 254-page physical textbook, and has 250 additional pages of supplementary material in the form of appendices (see below). Extensive navigation buttons provide an interactive environment for studying and memorizing anatomical and functional details for all the muscles of the body.

  Appendix 1 - Muscle Detail Cards (175 pages)

Each page is a full treatment of an individual muscle, presented using the MMM brain-friendly approach (visual, verbal, relational). These "cards" are linked to the Muscle Origin/Insertion/Action tables in Chapters 4, 5 and 6 of the book, so the reader can jump to a Muscle Detail Card and then jump back to the muscle table they are studying.

  Appendix 2 - Action Pair Cards (75 pages)

Each page presents all the muscles associated with a specific pair of opposing actions (for example, flexion and extension of the humerus at the shoulder joint). This creates brain-friendly displays of the synergists and antagonists for the actions at all the bones and joints of the body. These "cards" are linked to the Synergist & Antagonist tables in Chapters 4, 5 and 6 of the book, so the reader can jump to an Action Pair Card and then jump back to the table they are studying.

  In-book Navigation

Innovative clickable buttons throughout the e-book allow the reader to navigate easily between book sections, and to navigate the two-page spreads and overlayed images that are provided in the physical book.
