So I got my book yesterday. I'm only taking 141, not 141L, but the book for 141 (Anatomy & Physiology The Unity of Form and Function, by Saladin) is definitely by system. Hope this helps

I'm taking it this upcoming semester so I'm not positive, but I have a coworker who was taking it this last semester. If I'm not mistaken, I recall it being by system when looking through her book....
