Contents:
i. basic cell processes: integration and coordination -- 1. introduction to physiology -- 2. molecular interactions -- 3. compartmentation: cells and tissues -- 4. energy and cellular metabolism -- 5. membrane dynamics -- 6. communication, integration, and homeostasisii. homeostasis and control -- 7. introduction to the endocrine system -- 8. neurons: cellular and network properties -- 9. the central nervous system -- 10. sensory physiology -- 11. efferent division: autonomic and somatic motor control -- 12. Muscles --13. integrative physiology -- i: control of body movementiii. integration of function -- 14. cardiovascular physiology -- 15. blood flow and the control of blood pressure -- 16. blood -- 17. mechanics of breathing -- 18. gas exchange and transport -- 19. the kidneys -- 20. integrative physiology ii: fluid and electrolyte balanceiv. metabolism, growth, and aging -- 21. digestion -- 22. metabolism and energy balance -- 23. endocrine control of growth and metabolism -- 24. the immune system -- 25. integrative physiology iii: exercise -- 26. reproduction and development
Summary: Human Physiology: An Integrated Approach broke ground with its thorough coverage of molecular physiology seamlessly integrated into a traditional homeostasis-based systems approach. The newly revised Sixth Edition introduces a major reorganization of the early chapters to provide the best foundation for the course and new art features that streamline review and essential topics so that students can access them more easily on an as-needed basis. Recognized as an extraordinary educator and active learning enthusiast, Dr. Silverthorn incorporates time-tested classroom techniques throughout the book and presents thorough, up-to-date coverage of new scientific discoveries, biotechnology techniques, and treatments of disorders. Dr. Silverthorn also co-authored the accompanying Student Workbook and Instructor Manual, ensuring that these ancillaries reinforce the pedagogical approach of the book.
