520 _a"As a multidisciplinary author team, we are bound bye a common passion to make the anatomy and physiology course a springboard to a rewarding career in a range of health-related professions. We have created an extensive body of features that bring anatomy and physiology concepts to life through sport, exercise science and clinical scenarios that students will easily relate to. The central theme of this resource — homeostasis — is a universal one, and we have arrived to deliver deeper student engagement and understanding through the context, examples and applications we have highlighted from our local region. We couldn't have built a resource of this magnitude on our own, and would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all our academic colleagues who reviewed our work and the participants of the Wiley advisory boards. We would also like to thank Jerry Tortora and Bryan Derrickson for the outstanding source material, and the team at Wiley Australia for their support and encouragement throughout this journey. Wiley's commitment to affordability in this subject area is something we warmly welcome as an author team who want to see our resource as accessible as possible for students in our region." —Preface
