Concepts in Medical Physiology is the new edition of this comprehensive overview of physiology.



Divided into eight extensive sections, this book begins with the general principles of physiology, followed by separate sections on neurophysiology, blood and the immune system, cardiovascular, pulmonary, renal, gastrointestinal, and endocrine physiology.



Each section contains detailed cases with follow up discussion and treatment options. Each case concludes with questions to reinforce important clinical concepts. Clinical application boxes link physiology with practical issues, and the concepts covered are summarised at the end of each chapter.



Suggested further reading for each chapter makes this book an excellent starting point for the investigation of any physiological disorder and the book is enhanced by over 350 illustrations and images. Concepts in Medical Physiology is written by Julian Seifter from the Brigham and Women's Hospital in Boston, USA.
