BASIC SCIENCE

DESCRIPTION The Second Edition of Pathophysiology offers a unique clinical approach that facilitates learning by viewing pathophysiology as health care professionals do. Whereas a traditional systems-based approach impractically isolates diseases to a single body system, this textbook's approach recognizes how disease affects multiple systems. FEATURES f f Clinical approach and organization facilitate application and retention of key information. f f Sophisticated full-color art program engages students and includes detailed illustrations of the human body in health and disease. f f An application exercise in the last chapter requires students to apply the complex pathophysiologic concepts that they have learned to diabetes mellitus, emphasizing the practical nature of the material through application. f f FromThe Lab: provides additional content on relevant laboratory and diagnostic information, including unique aspects of the lab test and lab results for students to consider. f f Research: highlights new findings and demonstrates how research can be incorporated into clinical practice. f f Recommended Review briefly reviews related concepts covered earlier in the text or from prior anatomy and physiology coursework. f f A concept map appears in each chapter to visually illustrate the important interrelationships of key concepts.
