The book begins with a review of normal anatomy and physiology, followed by pathophysiology and application of concepts to specific disorders. Each chapter includes a discussion of the disease processes and abnormalities that may occur, with a focus on the pathophysiologic concepts involved. Written by a team of expert contributors led by Jacquelyn Banasik, this text emphasizes the major pathophysiology concepts relevant to clinical practice while not overwhelming the reader with minute detail.Clear, easy-to-read writing style emphasizes critical thinking, and includes many tables, boxes, and figures to highlight key contentThorough updates include information on the newest scientific findings and advances in treatment, more than 100 new figures for improved clarity, and moreMore than 1,000 full-color photos and illustrations help to clarify complex pathophysiological conceptsGlobal Health Care boxes summarize topics such as COVID-19, HIV/AIDS, Ebola, tropical diseases, and more, with information on prevalence, mechanism of disease and transmissionPediatric and Older Adult Considerations boxes address age-related changes associated with specific body systemsUseful learning resources include chapter outlines, bolded key terms, key questions, Key Points boxes, Clinical Judgment challenges, and chapter summariesNEW!
