Benson's SHORT is designed for a 1 or 2-semester AAndP course where no single dissection specimen is used. In addition to the dozens of effective exercises, this lab manual is unique in that students are asked to label many of the figures to reinforce concepts. It is self-contained, detailed, and very logical in its approach. Because of its detailed content (textual material, line art, photos, and histology micrographs), it is generally not necessary to take the course textbook to the lab..

"A dynamic three-dimensional model depicts human immunodeficiency viruses (the cause of AIDS) ecaping from an infected white blood cell. As they emerge from the cell surface, the viruses (yellow and gold spheres) acquire a membrane envelope studded with special potein receptors. These receptors act somewhat like a key for viruses to unlock and gain entrance to the next host cell. The red background medium represents the circulating blood, an important factor in the transmission of AIDS."--
