This slide set accompanies a book of the same title. The textbook aims to equip students with the strong background in physiology required for the practice of medicine or for further study in the biomedical sciences. The text is written by distinguished teachers and researchers, selected from leading medical schools, each of whom has directed a course in medical school physiology and taught medical and graduate students for over 20 years. These experts provide thorough treatments of the fundamental principles of general and organ system-specific physiology and the complexities of integrative physiology. Problem-solving applications of physiological principles in different clinical settings are stressed over rote memorization of facts. Challenging study questions, with answers, at the end of each section help students assess how well they are assimilating the material.
