The most authoritative and student-friendly physiology textbook of its kind provides a concise introduction to modern physiology. A simple straightforward writing style contains concise explanations of only the most relevant principles in physiology. This illustrated book contains 4-colour illustrations which clearly show all aspects of physiology and help students easily grasp difficult concepts and structures. A multi-author approach in this book, allows the most current information to be presented by those who know it best. The emphasis in this book is on fundamentals in physiology. It is particularly strong on cell biology which is the basis for all other functions in the body. These cellular and molecular aspects are emphasized throughout the text. Helpful learning aids such as boldfaced terms, summaries and review questions maximize learning and mastery of difficult topics. Clinical comments place the information in context, providing a student with justification for learning details which are not always of obvious significance.
