Summary |
This book gives knowledge of biology or chemistry to the readers. Essential aspects of anatomy are presented clearly and reinforced with excellent illustrations. Essentials aspects of physiology are discussed simply, yet with accuracy and precision.
The text has three unifying themes: the relationship between physiology and anatomy, the interrelations among the organ systems, and the relationship of each organ system to homeostasis. Although each type of cell, tissue, organ, or organ system is discussed simply and thoroughly in itself, applicable connections are made to other aspects of the body or to the functioning of the body as a whole.
