Więcej o książce
This edition serves as an accessible and engaging introduction to basic pathophysiology, offering a comprehensive visual survey of common diseases affecting each body system. It has been extensively updated and reorganized to present the latest knowledge more efficiently. Organized by organ system, it features completely rewritten chapters on cancer, the nervous system, mental illness and cognitive disorders, the urinary system, respiratory system, heredity, endocrine system, cardiovascular system, and blood, along with a new chapter on the eye and ear (special senses). The pedagogy has been enhanced with a stronger foundational coverage of disease mechanisms, new features on Healthy Aging and health promotion, and extensive new artwork. This text aids allied health students in grasping pharmacology principles and their manifestations in human disease, which they can apply in their careers. It offers a solid foundation in terminology and concepts related to immunity, inflammation, inheritance, cancer, and infectious diseases, followed by updated visual coverage of each body system. Additionally, it promotes critical thinking through various features designed for individual and classroom engagement, while emphasizing disease prevention and health promotion by linking key concepts to opportunities for promoting health and preventing disease in themselves and others.
