Completely updated, the 3rd edition of this practical textbook introduces you to basic anatomy and physiology - covering need-to-know principles with real-world examples that make key concepts easy to understand. It's logically organized into 17 chapters that each explores a particular body system. This edition is easier to use than ever, offering an engaging new layout with more than 200 color illustrations, as well as new Tools for Learning that lead you through each chapter, highlighting important topics and helping you strengthen and assess your understanding of anatomy and physiology. The reader-friendly approach features a conversational writing style to enhance readability and comprehension. More than 200 full-color illustrations with captions clearly demonstrate core concepts and reinforce important principles. Chapter outlines at the beginning of each chapter provide an overview of the material that will be covered. Key terms, many with phonetic pronunciation guides, are located throughout the chapters. Chapter quizzes and review questions reinforce and assess your understanding of key chapter content. Useful appendices include information on medical terminology, as well as answers to the chapter quizzes. An extensive glossary provides definitions for all key terms, as well as many additional terms that may be unfamiliar. Tools for Learning guide you through each chapter for a more focused study experience: Learning Objectives appear after main headings to help you concentrate on important information. Quiz Yourself questions at the end of each major section allow you to reinforce and test your comprehension of key concepts. Chapter Summaries illustrate how the topics covered in each chapter support the Learning Objectives. Part captions - now integrated into the illustrations - clearly explain core concepts and highlight important principles demonstrated by the images. An enhanced Evolve companion website offers additional learning exercises, including: Panorama of Anatomy and Physiology program with interactive quizzes, movie clips, fun facts, and information on careers related to A&P.

Quantitative Human Physiology: An Introduction is the first text to meet the needs of the undergraduate bioengineering student who is being exposed to physiology for the first time, but requires a more analytical/quantitative approach. This book explores how component behavior produces system behavior in physiological systems. Through text explanation, figures, and equations, it provides the engineering student with a basic understanding of physiological principles with an emphasis on quantitative aspects. Features a quantitative approach that includes physical and chemical principles Provides a more integrated approach from first principles, integrating anatomy, molecular biology, biochemistry and physiology Includes clinical applications relevant to the biomedical engineering student (TENS, cochlear implants, blood substitutes, etc.) Integrates labs and problem sets to provide opportunities for practice and assessment throughout the course NEW FOR THE SECOND EDITION Expansion of many sections to include relevant information Addition of many new figures and re-drawing of other figures to update our understanding and clarify difficult areas Substantial updating of the text to reflect newer research results Addition of several new appendices including statistics, nomenclature of transport carriers, and structural biology of important items such as the neuromuscular junction and calcium release unit Addition of new problems within the problem sets Addition of commentary to power point presentations

Very Short Introductions: Brilliant, Sharp, Inspiring Physiology is the science of life, and sets out to understand how living things work and what makes them distinct from the non-living. It considers how our bodies are supplied with energy, how they maintain their internal parameters, the ways in which we gather and process information, the ways we take action, and the creation of new generations. This Very Short Introduction explores the field of human physiology, considering how the body works, senses, reacts, and defends itself. As Jamie A. Davies shows, human life (and indeed, all life) is sustained by the interplay of a wide variety of physiological mechanisms and principles. He discusses the physiological experiments and research undertaken to understand these processes, and analyses the ethical issues involved. He also considers the evolution of the scientific field itself, showing how enhanced understandings of physiological knowledge can help inform medical research and care. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Very Short Introductions series from Oxford University Press contains hundreds of titles in almost every subject area. These pocket-sized books are the perfect way to get ahead in a new subject quickly. Our expert authors combine facts, analysis, perspective, new ideas, and enthusiasm to make interesting and challenging topics highly readable.

This book provides a highly accessible introduction to anatomy and physiology. Written for students studying the subject for the first time, it covers the human body from the atomic and cellular levels through to all the major systems and includes chapters on blood, immunity and homeostasis. Logically presented, the chapters build on each other and are designed to develop the reader’s knowledge and understanding of the human body. By the end of each chapter, the reader will understand and be able to explain how the structures and systems described are organised and contribute to the maintenance of health. Describing how illness and disease undermine the body’s ability to maintain homeostasis, this text helps readers to predict and account for the consequences when this occurs. Complete with self-test questions, full colour illustrations and a comprehensive glossary, this book is an essential read for all nursing and healthcare students in both further and higher education.

Introduction to Anatomy and Physiology covers all body systems using a student-friendly writing style that makes complex subjects easier to understand. Written specifically for the high school market, the chapters in this textbook are divided into lessons, providing content in a manageable format for the student. Each lesson is further divided into subtopics, with questions at the end of each subtopic to help students gauge their understanding of the material. Clinical case studies and real-world applications enhance student interest and involvement. An outstanding illustration program includes anatomically exact drawings with great use of color, simplified labeling, and teaching captions. Strong pedagogy includes study aids, such as learning objectives, lesson summaries, and extensive assessment opportunities increase students' ability to succeed in this challenging course. This edition has been updated to include content on the impact of COVID-19, artificial tissues, muscle disorders, the sense of touch, and Rh factor to the universal donor and universal recipient definitions.

Yet one cannot understand the whole without a prior understanding of the parts. The dilemma is one of the most difficult problems to be solved by the teacher and in no subject is it more important than in physiology. In physiology more than in most subjects the part serves the whole and the whole serves the parts in an extraordinarily intimately integrated manner.

Excerpt from An Introduction to Human Physiology I have written this book with a distinct consciousness that physiology in a medical school is, in conjunction with anatomy, the introduction to medicine and to surgery of those who will engage in 'general practice, ' and I hope that the volume may be found to justify its title of 'Human Physiology' with reference to the position which the subject should occupy in medical education, as the junction to which anatomy, chemistry, and physics converge, and from which the principles of medicine and of surgery diverge. Physiology does not consist in a knowledge of recondite phenomena, of difficult names, and of complicated instruments. It should fundamentally consist in the living mental picture of what the great organs below a mans skin are like, what they are doing, how they can be examined, what happens when they are not working properly, how their actions hang together, how they may be influenced for good and for evil. But physiology, as it is written, contains more than this, and, in sparing measure, it is well that the 'Institutes of Medicine' should not be restricted to the visibly 'useful, ' or to the obviously 'utilisable.'
