Abstract:
This book reivews the field of physiology, emphasizing many clinical applications of basic concepts. The purpose of the book is to provide a concise summary of mammalian and, particularly, of human physiology for medical students. This is a formidable task and a worthy objective, which the author meets. The targeted audience is medical students (and others) who have some knowledge of anatomy, chemistry, and biochemistry; however, this text would be useful for anyone wishing to review the fundamentals of physiology
