Dig Deeper into Our Program Offerings

Anatomy & Physiology

  • Introduction to the Human Body, by Gerard Tortora and Bryan Derrickson

    Introduction to the Human Body is developed to meet the needs of a one-semester high school anatomy and physiology course. The program provides an effective blend of stunning art and clearly written content to illuminate the complexities of the human body. Clinical discussions make the content relevant to students, and class-tested pedagogy is woven into the narrative.

  • Principles of Anatomy & Physiology, by Gerard Tortora and Bryan Derrickson

    Principles of Anatomy & Physiology has been the leading program for students of human anatomy and physiology on college campuses and in high schools for several decades. Its comprehensive, detailed, and accessible content—including outstanding visuals—makes it the best resource of its kind. Students who complete the program will be prepared for future college biology courses.

  • Laboratory Manual for Anatomy & Physiology, by Connie Allen and Valerie Harper

    Laboratory Manual for Anatomy & Physiology contains activities and experiments that help students visualize anatomical structures and understand complex physiological topics. Lab exercises require students to first apply information they have learned and then critically evaluate it.

Chemistry

  • Basic Concepts of Chemistry, by Leo J. Malone and Theodore O. Dolter

    Basic Concepts of Chemistry has been updated with many new features that address general chemistry topics, with an emphasis on outcomes assessment and student-centered activities. Every concept in the program is clearly illustrated with one or more step-by-step examples. “Making It Real” essays present timely, relevant, and engaging real-world applications.

  • Chemistry: The Molecular Nature of Matter, by Neil Jespersen and Alison Hyslop

    Chemistry: The Molecular Nature of Matter provides the necessary practice, support, concept mastery, and individualized instruction to lead to success in the AP® Chemistry course. The program’s unique “chemical tools” approach guides readers to analyze and solve mathematical and conceptual problems, as well as gain concept mastery of chemical phenomena.

  • Visualizing Everyday Chemistry, by Douglas P. Heller and Carl H. Snyder

    Visualizing Everyday Chemistry introduces students to the basic principles of chemistry through words, compelling visuals, and learning aids, allowing students to quickly visualize how chemistry impacts their lives and society. The program is ideal for a one-semester course.

  • Organic Chemistry, by David Klein


    Organic Chemistry covers the concepts typically included in an organic chemistry textbook, but places special emphasis on skills development to support these concepts. This emphasis provides students with a greater opportunity to achieve proficiency in key organic chemistry skills.

Environmental Science

Physics

  • Cutnell & Johnson Physics, AP® Edition, by David Young and Shane Stadler

    Cutnell and Johnson Physics, AP® Edition focuses on conceptual understanding, problem solving, and establishing relevance, so that students can succeed in class and on the Advanced Placement Physics 1 and 2 exams. It includes more than 250 author-narrated videos, as well as practical examples, career insights, and case studies from medicine, biology, and other professions.

  • Fundamentals of Physics, AP® Edition, by David Halliday, Robert Resnick, and Jearl Walker

    Fundamentals of Physics, AP Edition provides students with the skills they need to succeed in AP Physics C and in future coursework through its focus on conceptual understanding, problem solving, and current real-world applications. Through manageable chunks of content, embedded media, interactive challenges, activities, and games, the program fosters a deep understanding of calculus-based physics concepts.

  • Matter & Interactions, by Ruth W. Chabay and Bruce A. Sherwood


    Matter & Interactions integrates 21st century physics and computational physics for the calculus-based physics course, mirroring how practicing physicists view their discipline. The text emphasizes the small number of fundamental principles that underlie the behavior of matter and identifies models that can explain a wide variety of physical phenomena.

Insights and Resources

Increasing Student Engagement in Physics

Today’s students often read the assigned material, and when they do, they struggle with comprehension. Jearl Walker has developed a new learning design to simulate an office-hour type discourse, based on his experiences with one of his physics students.

Flipping the Classroom in Physics

Wiley authors Dave Young and Shane Stadler discuss how flipping the classroom, or “inverted teaching,” lets you spend class time engaging students with active learning techniques instead of traditional lecturing.​
