ABOUT THE Authors
Howard Ash
Cinnamon L. VanPutte
Associate Professor Growth, Development and Structure Southern Illinois University School of Dental Medicine
Cinnamon has been teaching biology and human anatomy and physiology for over two decades. At SIU School of Dental Medicine she is the course director for the Integrated Biomedical Science courses and teaches physiology to first-year dental students and participates in dental-based physiology research. Cinnamon is an active member of several professional societies, including the Human Anatomy and Physiology Society (HAPS) and American Dental Education Association (ADEA). Her Ph.D. in zoology, with an emphasis in endocrinology, is from Texas A&M University. She worked in Dr. Duncan MacKenzies lab, where she was indoctrinated in the major principles of physiology and the importance of critical thinking. The critical thinking component of Seeleys Human Anatomy & Physiology epitomizes Cinnamons passion for the field of human anatomy and physiology; she is committed to maintaining this tradition of excellence. Cinnamon and her husband, Robb (also a biology professor), have two children: a daughter, Savannah, and a son, Ethan. Savannah is studying to become an elementary school teacher. Ethan is involved in 4-H and shows steers and lambs. He is working on his future endeavors. Cinnamon and her family live on a farm with her parents, Tom and Bobbie, where they raise sheep and cattle.

Dedication
This text is dedicated to the students of human anatomy and physiology. Helping students develop a working knowledge of anatomy and physiology is a satisfying challenge, and we have a great appreciation for the effort and enthusiasm of so many who want to know more. It is difficult to imagine anything more exciting, or more important, than being involved in the process of helping people learn about the subject we love so much.
Acknowledgments
A great deal of effort is required to produce a heavily illustrated textbook like Seeleys Anatomy & Physiology. Many hours of work are required to organize and develop the components of the textbook while also creating and designing illustrations, but no text is solely the work of the authors. It is not possible to adequately acknowledge the support and encouragement provided by our loved ones. They have had the patience and understanding to tolerate our absences and our frustrations. They have also been willing to provide assistance and unwavering support.
