Synopsis
The Human Body in Health & Disease 3rd edition, not only presents a body systems approach with a strong emphasis on vocabulary and basic anatomy and physiology concepts, but it also presents the basic mechanisms of disease and pathologic conditions associated with each body system. This comprehensive text is dominated by two unifying themes: the complementarity of structure and function and homeostasis. The integrating principle of homeostasis is used to show how normalstructure and function is achieved and maintained. Failures of homeostasis are shown as basic mechanisms of disease. As a result, anatomy, physiology, and pathology emerge as living and dynamic topics of personal interest and relevance to the student at this level. Content covers topics in a very friendly writing style that has won the loyalty of many users and has made Health & Disease one of the topbooks in this market. Clinical Applications (answers in back of book) at the end of each chapter are short case studies with questions that tie theory to practice A Chemistry Appendix discusses basic chemistry concepts needed for understanding basic anatomy and physiology Cadaver photos go one step beyond illustrations by providing a true visualization of the human body Detailed Outline Summaries at the end of each chapter provide the student with an excellent recap of important chapter content. Pathologic Conditions appendix provides student with a series of tables that summarize specific pathological conditions by characteristic Medical Terminology appendix provides a list of word parts commonly used in terms related to medicine and pathology along with tips on dissecting complex terms to determine their meanings Clinical Laboratory Values appendix provides commonly observed values for human body content and physiological conditions along with their normal ranges Boxed essays highlighting clinical examples to reinforce the concepts of how disease affects normal function and how therapies can restore normal function; health and wellness issues to reinforce the basic concepts of human structure and function by applying them in practical ways to current problems in health Study Tips with collaborative learning activities are now listed at the end of each chapter to assist the student in how best to study the chapter materials, making this text even more student friendly than ever before. A new design and updated art program makes this edition even more attractive and motivating for the beginning anatomy and physiology student, This updated third edition includes outstanding coverage of basic anatomy and physiology, plus the mechanisms of disease and pathologic conditions associated with each body system. Two unifying themes are integrated in this comprehensive text: the complementary nature of structure and function, and homeostasis. Homeostasis is used to show how "normal" structure and function are maintained, whereas failures of homeostasis are shown as basic mechanisms of disease. The reader is drawn into the subject by a clear, straightforward style, superior illustrations, and student-friendly features. Included FREE with the softcover text is Body Spectrum: Mosby's Electronic Anatomy Coloring Book CD-ROM.
