Textbook of Physiology - Softcover

This book provides a comprehensive working knowledge of human physiology using a format that ensures easy understanding. Extensive use of outlines and highlighting of key information, with a clear statement of the functions of each system facilitate study and recall. It focuses on fundamental principles which form the foundation for clinical practice rather than dwell on research details. Clinical relevance is emphasised throughout and certain diseases, which are peculiar to Africa, Asia and Pacific regions, are also included. At appropriate places, the book introduces common physiology practicals with illustrations thus bridging the gap between lectures and practicals. The ethnic differences are described as against Caucasian values in other books. This book makes interesting reading for undergraduate and postgraduate medical students and students of allied health professions.
