Textbook Of Medical Physiology

The book presents an exhaustive and thorough exposition of the fundamentals of medical physiology. The exposition is divided systematically into three sections covering General
Physiology, Systemic Physiology and Specialized Integrative Physiology. Each section begins with a brief Introduction highlighting the topics covered. The subject is then explained in a graded manner with a large number of tables, flowcharts and diagrams to aid understanding. The level of exposition in the book is sufficiently detailed for it to serve as a useful text for undergraduate courses as well as for PG entrance examinations

Special Features:

The unique feature of this book is its compilation in three divisions viz. General Physiology, Systemic Physiology and Specialized Integrative Physiology.
The division on Specialized Integrative Physiology highlights the role of different systems in accomplishing a particular important function of the human body. For example: the integrative role of nervous system, respiratory system, cardiovascular system, skin and endocrine system in controlling body temperature is described in one chapter.
