Quantitative Human Physiology

An Introduction

Beschreibung

Quantitative Human Physiology: An Introduction, Third Edition, winner of a 2018 Textbook Excellence Award (Texty), is the first text to meet the needs of the undergraduate bioengineering student who is being exposed to physiology for the first time but requires a more analytical/quantitative approach. This book explores how component behavior produces system behavior in physiological systems. Through text explanation, figures, and equations, it provides the engineering student with a basic understanding of physiological principles, with an emphasis on quantitative aspects. The third edition has been revised with more and expanded problem sets and improved illustrations.
