Mohammed Meah: Essential Human Physiology for Biosciences, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

An up-to-date resource for bioscience students focusing on the essentials of human physiology and their importance for biological control systems

Essential Human Physiology for Biosciences is a comprehensive text describing the structure and most important functions of the systems of the human body and the control mechanisms governing cells, organs and systems. Organized by systems across 14 chapters, the book highlights key physiological principles, essential techniques, and the historical contributions of pioneering scientists in the field.

The book explains the mechanism of dysfunctions that can lead to disease and bridges foundational knowledge with applied understanding. It demystifies complex physiological terms and concepts and the applied aspects of physiology necessary for understanding the function of systems.

In this comprehensive new text, readers will find:

• Standalone chapters organised by human body system for easy navigation
• Comprehensive explorations of the essentials of each system
• Essential roles of multiple systems in regulating stress, sleep, shock, temperature, acid / base and exercise
• Multiple appendices, including normal physiological values, formulas, and lists of abbreviations
• Accurate discussions of physiology basics that bridge the gap between fundamentals and applied understanding
• Historical bases for the development of physiology

Perfect for students of physiology, pharmacology, biomedical sciences, and biochemistry, Essential Human Physiology for Biosciences will also benefit graduate students in allied health and medicine pre-professional studies.
