DESCRIPTION
Emphasizing application of knowledge, active learning strategies, critical
thinking, and evidence-based practice, this updated 3rd Edition of
Applied
Pathophysiology: A Conceptual Approach to the Mechanisms of Disease
explores
pathophysiology through the lens of body function concepts and what happens
when function is altered through injury or disease. This novel approach helps
students understand that diseases are rarely confined to one body system and challenges them to apply what
they’ve learned to a range of diseases, rather than trying to memorize facts about specific conditions. In the
process, they learn to think about pathophysiology in the same way practioners do in a clinical setting—by
working from symptoms to the cause, rather than the other way around.
